Overview
Fermeate is built to solve a simple problem: today's fermentation cost curves are constrained by a lack of control over the microorganisms doing the work. Fermeate's hardware is an external unit. It connects through ports your tanks already have. There is no vessel modification and no process interruption to annoy your operators and engineers for installation.
