Company Info
- Company Description
- Yeastime Startup S.r.l. develops a fermentation 2.0 process using an innovative stimulation cycle induced through a device dynamically and externally applied to different geometries of already existing bioreactors. The developed technological innovation intervenes in the landscape of production processes that occur through liquid cell culture to optimize their economies of scale. Thanks to the alternative stimulation cycle we engineered and which is patent-pending, we act only in the active phase of bioproduction to decrease lenght, energy costs and environmental impact without affecting the chemico-physical properties of the obtained output.
We started building this project fascinated by bioacoustics, a discipline that integrates studies of physics, engineering and biotechnology, with a focus on the "micro-world", confident that innovativeness in the multidisciplinary approach can provide new tools to impact bioproductions.
Yeastime contributes to the reduction of carbon dioxide through energy optimization of bioreactors closely linked to production times, helping industries to come into synergy with IPCC standards. From our research, the fermentation process requires 40% of the process energy cost, we act by reducing it in a range of 20-30% depending on the bioproduction.
