Abstract
Disclosed herein is a method and system of recovering multiple products from industrial-scale production of a biomass of an aquatic species.
Claims35
A process of recovering multiple products from biomass of an aquatic species comprising:
- providing the biomass;
- lysing the biomass to generate a lysed biomass;
- separating the lysed biomass to generate a juice and a first solid phase;
- filtering the juice to generate a filtered juice and a second solid phase;
- clarifying the filtered juice to generate a clarified juice and a third solid phase;
- coagulating protein from the clarified juice to generate a broth comprising the wet protein concentrate;
- separating the wet protein concentrate from the broth;
- drying the wet protein concentrate to generate a dry protein concentrate;
- producing a wet bio-crude using the first solid phase;
- drying the wet bio-crude to generate at least one product selected from a dry bio-crude and a carbohydrate-rich meal;
- wherein the multiple products comprise products selected from the dry protein concentrate, dry bio-crude, and carbohydrate-rich meal;
- and
- wherein at least 50% of the protein in the multiple products is in the dry protein concentration.
