Plant-based and Bio-Based Proteins: The Future of Nutrition
While vegan and vegetarian cuisine have greatly improved in both look and taste in recent years, the world has discovered a growing need and interest in expanding its protein profile with new, nutritious ingredients.
By leveraging its skills and knowledge, HYDROAIR has supplied several plants for the production of bio-based proteins through fermentation.
The fermentation process starts with a micro-organism, which is fed with nutrients to develop bio-products that are identical to nature’s animal-based products; milk protein, heme protein, collagen protein and egg protein are some examples of those bio-products.
Microfiltration and Ultrafiltration are key parts of this downstream processing: fully automatic systems, with sanitary design, designed for the purification and concentration of target proteins. With their exceptional capabilities in this field, HYDROAIR is hard at work shaping the future of nutrition!
