Biodiversity Conservation
The closed system production method, and disposal of non-viable organisms, ensures that
there are no concerns regarding the conservation of biodiversity.
External Environmental Monitoring
Taking into account the self-contained nature of our operation and the appropriate disposal
of non-viable organisms, our risk assessment has determined that the impact of our
processes on the surrounding environment is minimal. Consequently, we have reached the
conclusion that an external environmental monitoring program is currently unnecessary and
not applicable.
Emergency Preparedness
Control and Containment Systems to Manage Equipment Failure
A dedicated monitoring system shall be utilised for monitoring critical parameters and
process performance. Alerts are automated to notify relevant personnel immediately in the
event of critical process deviations (out of specifications).
Comprehensive documentation of emergency shutdown procedures is in place, and
personnel undergo thorough training and competency assessments to ensure their
proficiency in executing these procedures.
A preventative maintenance schedule will assist in addressing potential equipment issues
before they lead to failure. Scheduled maintenance activities help ensure equipment
reliability and reduce the likelihood of unexpected failures.
Each bioreactor is constructed as an individual, self-contained unit, completely separate
from the others. Consequently, in the event of a breach in the integrity of one bioreactor, the
remaining bioreactors will remain unaffected, ensuring their continued integrity.
In the event of a major breach to bioreactor integrity (e.g., major equipment failure, natural or
man-made disaster), the entire facility is bunded to hold 100% of the process facility
(approximately 200 000 L). The bunded liquid is processed through a submersible pump into
a water treatment/neutralisation system prior to any trade waste discharge.
