ALPMA’s process technology division combines years of experience in the extraction and processing of proteins from various sources. These include from precision fermentation, an innovative biotechnological process that uses microorganisms such as bacteria, yeasts or fungi to produce specific proteins, enzymes or other molecules. These microorganisms are genetically modified so that they can produce certain substances that normally come from animal sources.
Casein proteins are produced using microorganisms. By programming both bacteria and yeasts, productivity is optimized. However, the final product is identical to the cow’s product so the product can be consumed GMO-free.
The unit below is the heart of the downstream process to extract the desired protein from the biomass and concentrate it via membrane filtration.
