Our product
Solution
- Re-use the winery CO2 to produce food-grade microalgae
- The stored CO2 from the fermentation process is fed into an engineered tubular photobioreactor for algae production.
- The process allows for endless potential in food & drug applications.
What is Microalgae?
Microalgae are microscopic algae, found in freshwater and marine systems with the size range of 5-100 µm.
Composed of lipids (7–23%), proteins (6–52%), and carbohydrates (5–23%),
Chemical compositions of microalgae varies over a wide range of factors depending on species and on cultivation conditions.
Microalgae can be used to produce a wide range of metabolites.
Its photosynthetic efficiency is 10 times higher than terrestrial plants, achieving higher growth rates and biomass productivities.
How It Works
Step 1- Our Carbon Capture
- CO2 collection system
- Directly installed fermentation tanks
- Gas capture through pumps
- Automatic recovery
- Purification through activated carbon filters
- Compressed to 18 bar
- Stored in special high-pressure containers
- Simple distribution system
- Channels the CO2 to the photobioreactors
Step 2- Our Microalgae Cultivation
Carbon Capture Technology
- High grade CO2
- Purity of winery CO2 is very similar to the food-grade CO2 coded as E290.
- Carbon nutrients are 25-30% of microalgae production costs
- Efficient extraction methods save money
- Correct use of fermentation CO2 increases revenue Improves the process eco-sustainability.
Microalgae Cultivation
- Benefits of a closed system
- Less Contamination
- Smaller Footprint
- Less water loss
- Higher Yield
- Tubular photobioreactor is more efficient
