Merah Mas Industrial Biotech

About

The current focus of Merah Mas is water , specifically domestic municipal wastewater treatment - Sanitation (expanding to solid substrate fermentation - basically composting with a twist - in the near future). We aim to use non-sterile conditions, and non-genetically modified organisms, in order words, natural, indigenous little bacteria and fungi and plants and maybe animals along with smart bioprocess engineering design to produce valuable products from dilute resources (previously considered waste).

These products can be the old, boring energy , like biogas , or slightly more interesting fertiliser , but we aim to achieve sexy stuff like plastics and related products right up to fine chemicals like dyes and biosurfactants . One crazy end goal is to produce textiles, the processing agents for those textiles and the dyes to colour those textiles in one kick-ass industrial ecology.
