Technology infrastructures in biotechnology

In our food-grade pilot facilities of up to 10,000 litres, you can develop and scale up fermentation processes – both traditional and precision fermentation, as well as for genetically modified microorganisms. Here, your biotechnology is tested and optimised before full-scale production.

Food / Test & demo

Food Innovation Pilot plant

Nationally unique facility through the combination of staff and food grade premises with equipment for manufacturing, product development including production and product analysis.
Fossil-free fuels / Test & demo

Electrochemical processes

During 2021, a lab-scale electrochemistry test bed has been established in Örnsköldsvik. This technology can use renewable electricity to create valuable chemicals and alternate fuels from industrial waste streams.
Biobased materials / Test & demo

Viscose Process - Spinning Pilot

Increased population in the world results in increased consumption of textiles. This means that the textile raw material needs to be optimised and its process developed to make them more sustainable so that the consumption of the earth's resources is reduced. In that context, the spin pilot is excellent for new techniques and ideas about textils.
Medtech / Test & demo

3D-Bioprinting

Through 3D-printing it is possible to build biological structures by combining a biological, or synthetic material, with living cells. 3D-printing can e.g. be used to evaluate biological responses to pharmaceuticals or chemicals and can also be used in the development of future human spare parts. Within the manufacturing process, RISE develops competence and studies the characteristics and functions of 3D-Bioprinting systems.

Surface Analysis and Surface Design

The Surface Analysis and Surface Design test bed includes laboratories equipped for characterization and optimization of surfaces and surface interactions. We, at RISE, offer complete solutions to support our customer through the entire technological process. Using our broad expertise and a world-leading infrastructure we can help our customers from product idea to market. We can assist all the way in the development process, especially when specific challenges arise, for example to legal requirements or environmental issues.
Pulp and paper / Test & demo

Nanocellulose pilot

Transportable demonstration unit for production of dry strength additives: multi-fibrillated cellulose (MFC) and highly refined pulp. It is unique in that it enables mill trials under production conditions.
