SOURCE-LINKED INTELLIGENCE
Valorization of Agro-Industrial Waste through Fungi Fermentation supported by Digital Modeling
ng the entire value chains to ascertain their economic viability, market potential, environmental impact, and sustainability of fungal-based products. With the advent of advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), we can embed process knowledge into control systems. This ensures accessibility across both geographical and educational barriers, thus equipping these solutions to deliver maximal impact on the climate crisis through their truly global applications. Our strategy incorporates an efficient, zero-waste automatic production system that integrates feedstock screening, fermentation condition monitoring and control, along with downstream processing control. We will employ a variety of agricultural waste streams as feedstock. Also, ZEST aims to assess a range of compounds for their potential applications across various industries. ZEST's approach is geared towards driving the state-of-art in protein production efficiency, yield, and quality, with broad applications in the burgeoning biobased industry worldwide.
