Hyfé Information

Hyfé is reducing the cost of biomanufacturing by converting food processing wastewater into low-cost fermentation feedstock. Biomanufacturing has the potential to create solutions to some of the most pressing challenges facing humanity if rendered economically viable. Reducing cost of production is key to making sustainable bioproducts competitive. The feedstocks that power bioproduction represent a high impact opportunity since they account for up to 70% of fermentation operating expenses and are vulnerable to supply chain disruptions. Wastewater accounts for 1.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and food manufacturing is the third largest contributor. Hyfé’s patent-pending technology upgrades nutrients that are washed away in trillions of gallons of water from the food supply chain every year and uses them to drive down the cost of fermentation.
