BioSolum

About BioSolum

BioSolum is a contract research organization focused on industrial microbiology and biotechnology, with a strong emphasis on biobased solutions. It works on the valorization of sugar-rich and lignocellulosic residual streams from sectors such as animal feed, food, agriculture, and horticulture, helping clients move from raw side stream assessment to higher-value products.

The company positions itself as a practical R&D and scale-up partner for organizations that need support with feasibility, fermentation, downstream processing, and commercialization. Its approach combines laboratory work, process development, and advisory services, with the stated goal of delivering complete solutions through close collaboration and a broad network of partners.

Core Values

• Biobased thinking: BioSolum emphasizes the use of non-food biomass as a renewable feedstock and focuses on turning residual streams into useful products.
• Collaboration: The company highlights close cooperation with clients and partners as a way to deliver complete solutions and support commercialization.
• Practical problem solving: Its services are built around feasibility, troubleshooting, optimization, and scale-up, reflecting a hands-on approach to process development.
• Value creation from waste streams: A central theme is the conversion of underused raw materials into higher-value outputs for industry.

Unique Aspects

• End-to-end valorization capability: BioSolum describes a chain that can span biomass analysis, pre-treatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, fermentation, downstream processing, and scale-up, rather than only one isolated step.
• Strong focus on lignocellulosic side streams: The company specifically targets sugar-rich lignocellulose residual streams, including materials from agriculture and other industries.
• Broad technical infrastructure: Its facilities include a well-equipped laboratory, small-scale cultivation tools, bioreactors from 0.1 to 200 liters, photobioreactors, and downstream processing equipment such as centrifugation, filtration, and drying.
• Cross-sector application: BioSolum serves multiple industries, including feed, food, agriculture, and horticulture, which broadens the relevance of its expertise.
• Partner-based commercialization model: The company states that, together with partners, it can support the full route toward a biobased product, including market-oriented formulation and commercialization.
