OptiEnz Sensors, LLC, - a spinoff from Colorado State University - is a local startup company developing biosensors for continuous monitoring of organic chemicals in food and beverage processing, industrial fermentations, and water supplies. OptiEnz already has a prototype for continuous monitoring that is being tested in a variety of settings, and with a new CEO onboard, the company is immediately focusing on customer trialsOptiEnz Sensors designs and manufactures portable devices for measuring small organic molecule concentrations. Unlike traditional measurement technologies, OptiEnz sensors are capable of performing real-time, continuous, in-situ measurements, leading to applications in continuous water quality monitoring, process control, and process optimization. Optical Fibers: In a hand-held size package with replaceable fiber optic sensors, the OptiEnz sensor solution delivers an entirely new range of real-time measurement profiles from individual ad-hoc sampling to continuous, real-time, in-place monitoring. Application areas for organic chemical sensors: Food and Beverage: process control monitoring, limit altering for flow control, real-time food safety monitoring. Environmental: gas well & fracking fluid sentry monitoring, water quality monitoring in wells, rivers and lakes, contaminated site characterization, site remediation process tuning,water treatment process control monitoring. Bioprocess: Real-time monitoring of sugars and alcohols
