The equipment specification indicates significant investments in multiple fermentation and downstream processing units. For example, there are two freeze-thaw modules costing $1,750,000, two large fermenters priced at $1,708,000, and a spray dryer at $141,000. The disk-stack centrifuges and blending tanks also add to the processing capacity. Total equipment costs add up to $9,921,000. The associated installation, piping, and other expenses result in a total plant cost of $51,514,000, and with contractor fees and contingencies, the Direct Fixed Capital increases further.
