Your benefits

We start by mapping your side streams and understanding their composition, variability, and current handling. Based on this, we identify promising valorization routes – for example fermentation, enzymatic conversion, or extraction – and develop bioprocess concepts tailored to your streams, utilities, and existing footprint.

• Assessment of valorization opportunities in your process
• Concept flowsheets for fermentation / enzymatic / extraction routes
• Indicative volume and value potential for each concept

We connect specific side streams to concrete product opportunities in food, feed, and industrial markets. Examples include cereal, oilseed, and starch side streams for food and feed ingredients; functional components such as post-biotics or texturizing agents; and industrial materials such as bio-based monomers, polymers, or platform chemicals.

• Mapping of your streams to food & feed, functional ingredient, and industrial applications
• Example product concepts and target specifications
• Guidance on quality, safety, and regulatory considerations

Side stream valorization is a powerful lever for circularity and footprint reduction. Together with Bühler’s Environmental Impact Services, we can complement your project with Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to quantify CO₂ footprint, energy and water use, and other key indicators. This shows how valorization concepts compare to current disposal routes and supports your sustainability reporting and brand story.

• Qualitative and quantitative view on waste, emissions, and resource savings
• Optional LCA from Bühler’s Environmental Impact Services for selected concepts
• Clear sustainability metrics to support internal targets and customer communication
