DTU team is working on the microbial adaptation of the strains Actinobacillus succinogenes 130Z and Basfia succiniciproducens (by evolutionary adaptation procedure) to IVEM´s sugar-rich side streams. This will allow having more robust and resilient strains and, hence, a better performance on the [...]
In the past months the Downstream Industrial sub-unit construction took place at the installer’s workshop. After completing adjustment of unit’s different equipment and components, it was successfully placed in Paterna WWTP in March! In April, the installation was successfully completed, and [...]
Now that the construction of the industrial unit is finished and almost ready to GO in Paterna’s WWTP (Spain), in Denmark (2.500 km away) AUTH and DTU are working in parallel to provide support regarding the operation. Tests are now being carried out on a bigger scale for our Task 4.3 [...]
Construction of the unit is finished! What does this mean? It means this is it!… It is imminent!… The real deal is about to start, the operation of the industrial unit is practically ready! This will require a lot of coordination and cooperation from NEOSUCCESS members, that is why the [...]
The NEOSUCCESS consortium works every day to obtain the best data on the production of biosuccinic acid. In this sense, the analysis of the broths obtained in the laboratory-scale trials at AINIA build part of the path towards implementation of the industrial unit. Image: Once the lab trials are [...]
Work at DTU’s labs is progressing! A couple of months ago, some samples of sugary wastewater from our supplier (candy factory) arrived to DTU’s facilities. We have successfully produced BioSuccinic Acid (BSA) from the sugary wastewater in the lab. Now our colleages, DTU and AUTH, are [...]
Trials are being carried out at a laboratory scale system to improve further the process performance, in terms of different controllable operating variables for the optimization analysis. Thus, ensuring the quality of the products, the elimination of issues at the source, the prevention of errors [...]
“Happy and thrilling new year! Let’s organize and get ready for 2022!” said the project’s consortium last month. NEOSUCCESS members had a meeting by mid-January to organize the upcoming challenges that the project will face this year. 2022 will be a period of a lot of action! Some lab tests [...]
Both DTU and AUTH have started the optimization tasks of the NEOSUCCESS process with the candy waste provided by Trolli. One of our colleagues, Antonios Lithourgidis, a Ph.D. student from AUTH, is currently working at DTU’s facilities, as shown in the pictures. Antonios is performing [...]
The Up Stream Process (USP) sub-unit is now completed and starting-up! After months of hard work, the USP installation is very close to start working. IVEM is now testing the sub-unit to make sure there are no faults and iron it out. That means making sure that valves open and close properly, [...]
