BioExx Commissions Protein Isolate Facility

BioExx said that the previous concerns which were primarily caused by delays in receipt of certain valves and instruments have been resolved in all material respects allowing the project to move forward at the revised expected pace.

BioExx has already installed the equipment in the extraction area of the plant and its ancillary systems is now substantially complete. Commissioning of that area is said to have been commenced and is proceeding well.

A large protein spray dryer has also been completed to a level where the final building cladding is being installed and commissioning of the protein area of the plant will begin soon.

Chris Carl, CEO of BioExx, said: “We are pleased with our recent progress and we look forward to commencement of protein production. The quality of the work being done at the plant is very good, as is the effort and commitment of the entire project team.

“While we continue to face schedule challenges on an almost daily basis and expect to do so through to the actual start of production, there is a growing sense of optimism and excitement among the team as we approach this major operational milestone.”

BioExx is a technology and industrial processing company focused on the extraction of oil and high-value proteins from oilseeds for the global food, beverage, and nutrition markets.
