Research, Development and Testing

By continuously improving our own know-how, we help you improve yours

The Innovation center near Copenhagen, Denmark is a state-of-the-art facility for pilot-scale testing. Here, we have the ability to test processes and production equipment before scaling up to the production level. Working together with you, our specialists offer insight into how to achieve optimal processing set-ups.

We run pilot-scale, proof of principle programs using, for example, dry raw material ranging from just a few or up to several hundred kilograms. And, our testing of complete processes includes pilot-scale proof of principle, proof of concept of a complete process mimicking industrial processing, and single-stage processes.

The pilot plant facility at the Innovation center covers a range of equipment and processes:

• Starch extraction and purification
• Rasper
• Filtration
• Decanter and separator equipment
• Evaporation
• Zeta drying and spray drying

The laboratory facilities are equipped to perform characterisation and simple application trials including analytical instruments such as:

• Small scale wet separation and chromatography
• Protein and starch determination
• Dry matter determination
• Particle size determination
• Bioactive compound analysis using capillary electrophoresis techniques

SiccaDania team welcomes all customers and will arrange an appointment to visit the Innovation center to see our technology and consult with experts.
