Advancing food and beverage
Bioprocessing techniques contribute to the food and beverage industry in various ways. They produce a range of ingredients like enzymes, flavors, and vitamins, enhancing product quality. Fermentation, a key process, creates items like yogurt and beer, enriching flavor and texture. Biotechnological methods also yield nutraceuticals, functional foods, and alternative protein sources, addressing health and sustainability concerns. Enzyme production improves processing efficiency and product quality across various applications.
Food and beverage industry challenges
Scale up
Transitioning from small-scale to large-scale bioproduction while maintaining consistency and efficiency presents challenges in terms of equipment scalability, process optimization, and resource management.
Regulatory compliance
Meeting strict regulatory requirements and navigating complex compliance standards poses a significant challenge for food and beverage production, requiring meticulous documentation and adherence to quality control protocols.
Contamination control
Ensuring the purity of bioproduction processes and minimizing the risk of microbial contamination is a critical challenge, as any deviations can compromise product quality and safety, leading to potential recalls and reputational damage.
