Our technology – the biorefining process

With over 20 years of experience in biotechnology and biobased engineering, we have developed a patented and unique proprietary technology using continuous enzymatic hydrolysis. This ‘first-in, first out’ process enables us to run our plants 24/7, 365 days a year, and ensures all raw materials in several product streams are treated equally throughout production, while delivering consistent quality and yield. Our proprietary technology works in exactly the same way as the human digestive system – it starts with a fat- and protein-rich food grade rest raw material, which uses heated water and non-GMO food grade enzymes to solubilise the material. It then enters into our continuous enzymatic hydrolysis chamber, after which several separation stages take place to separate the purest fractions of soluble proteins, non-soluble proteins, oils and minerals. Years of experience has taught us that in order to optimise product characteristics, it requires the best processing conditions. Therefore, the biomega^® team, has developed and patented several reactors for tailor-made uses for a wide variety of marine raw materials. Our salmon processing biorefineries are widely used today for commercial applications for the pet food and human nutrition markets.
