Genetic engineering breakthroughs have allowed us to use sunlight-powered organisms (phototrophs) to sustainably produce valuable compounds. However, extracting these products (synthate) from the liquid they are grown in (broth) has been a major challenge.
The Horizon Bioreactor solves this problem by continuously and efficiently recovering these secreted metabolites from the broth. This innovative technology minimizes the negative impact of product build-up, which can hinder production.
