Biomanufacturing is broken.

Bigger bioreactors aren’t the answer. Modern, high efficiency bioreactor technology is.

Animation of bioreactors scaling up into larger and larger operations, which is not efficient or cost effective. This is a broken system that Pow.Bio can solve.

NEXT GENERATION TECH FOR THE
NEXT GENERATION OF BIOPRODUCTS

 Pow.Bio’s high efficiency fermentation platform decouples growth and production, solving the problems of contamination and genetic drift.
Fresh cells in, product out.
Animation of the two chamber process, with clean product synthesized and harvest material and waste separated out at the end.
Growth chamber, with cells growing and then moving into the production chamber.

In the first tank, biomass is grown to an optimal density. This provides fresh cells to the second tank.

Production chamber, where cells begin to synthesize the product, where it then splits into a harvest chamber, or a waste chamber.

In this tank, the environment is optimized for production.

The two final stages, where the product is separated from the waste, and is ready for collection.

A filtration system harvests product, removes waste, and recycles cells and media back into production tank.
