Sidestrømsnetværket

This network keeps you updated on upcycling and utilisation of sidestreams. This time focusing on turning biostreams into production media.

The objective of meeting is to provide an overview of the challenges and possibilities when refined sugar is replaced by bio-streams based growth media for cell cultured food.

Program

12:00. Lunch (light/grab sandwich). Networking - informal.

13:00. Welcome /Bjarke Jensen, GEA

• Short presentation of participants
• Setting the scene for the meeting / Lasse Solheim, ProteinFrontiers

13.20. Handling and processing biostreams - the journey from feed (livestock) to growth media

/ Kristian Knage-Drangsfeldt, Vestjylland Andel

• Sourcing biostreams and agricultural crops - cases
• Processing and optimizing feed (pig/cattle -> microbes)
• Feed stock fermentation - anticipated processing, optimization and workflow

13.50. Industrial scale upcycling of biostreams to become growth media (precision fermentation) - technology perspective / Bjarke Jensen and colleagues, GEA

• Strategy from CAPEX to OPEX (outsourcing upstream production of growth media preparation at small scale produduction
• Handling, storage, logistics - solid/fluid
• Technology for pretreatment of biostreams - physical and chemical properties of a growth media to fit fermentation equipment
• Maintain food quality of biostreams - contamination/sterilization
• Removing water from biostreams - upstream/downstream
• Cascade use of fermentation broth/biostream. Case: Upcycling of brewers spent gain
• Challenges of recovery with rough materials (secure low cost downstream by design upstream)

14.30. Break + refreshment

15.00. Site visit GEA Test Center - equipment

16.00. Reflections (challenges and potentials) moving from refined raw materials to biostream based complex media / Susanne Grøn , career background industrial scale precision fermentation

16.45. Discussion - wrap up

17.00. The End. Informal networking + refreshment

THERE MAY BE CHANGES /ONGOING UPDATES TO TODAY'S PROGRAM

The event is organised in collaboration with ProteinFrontiers, "Network - Feed stock industry for cell cultured food production", Food & Bio Cluster Denmark and GEA Danmark.

Food & Bio Cluster Denmark operates a number of subject-specific networks whose purpose is to drive knowledge sharing and potential collaborations on innovation.

To participate in our network groups, you must be a member of Food & Bio Cluster Denmark. If you are not a member yet, you are welcome to attend a single meeting to see if the network is for you. Hear more about your options from Kersti Haugan, kha@foodbiocluster.dk
