Technology Platform

Advanced marine biorefinery and selective separation technologies.

Raw Material

Mussel cooking broth from industrial processing plants. This effluent is rich in proteins, peptides, and free amino acids, specifically taurine, which is naturally abundant in marine mollusks.

Main Product

Natural Marine Taurine & Parabiotics. Thermally stable ingredients resistant to industrial extrusion (>120°C), unlike traditional probiotics. Critical for high-performance Pet Food and Aquaculture feeds.

Cascade Biorefinery Process

1

Advanced Pre-conditioning

Multistage filtration and clarification of the broth matrix.

2

Selective Concentration

Membrane filtration to retain macromolecules and concentrate target metabolites.

3

Selective Molecular Purification

Proprietary chromatographic polishing to isolate 99%+ pure taurine.

4

Drying & Stabilization

Final formulation into a stable, dry ingredient.

Platform Potential

  • Cascade Efficiency: Dual-stream valorization (Taurine extraction + Microalgal Biomass production) ensuring near-zero waste and maximum economic return.
  • Multi-product recovery: Potential to extract additional value from other amino acids and marine peptides.
  • Functional ingredients: Development of new bioactive compounds for nutraceutical applications via controlled biological functionalization.

Maturity Levels

  • TRL (Technology): 2
    Formulation of the technological concept. The source (mussel cooking water) and the theoretical process (biorefinery) have been identified, but experimental evidence is still needed to show that the compounds of interest can be extracted with the necessary purity and efficiency.
  • CRL (Market): 1 - 2
    Market hypothesis. An opportunity in the circular economy and nutraceuticals has been identified, but it has not yet been validated with the real "pains" of potential buyers or mussel processors.
  • BRL (Business): 2
    Initial business plan. A clear vision and potential team are identified, and the project is applying for acceleration programs, which is the first firm administrative step.

Quality Standards

High Purity

Selective chromatographic separation ensures a high-concentration natural taurine, free from synthetic residues and contaminants.

Industrial Compliance

The operations adhere to international Quality Management standards, including GMP and GLP, ensuring safety for food applications.

Total Traceability

Full control over the raw material source from the pristine waters of Southern Chile's mussel processing plants.
