In California, Pow.Bio has opened a 25,000 sq ft facility biomanufacturing facility in Alameda. The facility features a Continuous Fermentation System, and Pow.Bio’s proprietary dual-chamber approach enabled by artificial intelligence. This system is designed to achieve target production costs for competitive biomanufacturing, and increased scale-up capacity allows for seamless transition from gram-scale experimentation to the production of hundreds of kilograms of ingredients for finished products.
Predictive control allows for autonomous fermentation, reducing variability and increasing manufacturing efficiency. Additionally, the facility houses a dedicated food-grade production area with a state-of-the-art cleanroom and pilot-scale fermentation capabilities, addressing production standards for the food and beverage industries.
“Today, many promising bio-products are challenged with high costs of production and prolonged development timelines that delay revenue generation. The new Alameda facility is an active, working demonstration site for Pow.Bio’s modern, cost-effective manufacturing solution that is delivering meaningful gains for our partners right now,” stated Shannon Hall, CEO of Pow.Bio.
