Are your business looking to use algae instead of plastic to reach scope 3 of the Paris Agreement?

Carbon dioxide capture is critical to resolving climate change crisis. Microalgae have shown potential to directly capture emitted CO2 from the atmosphere.

The use of microalgae will enable circular carbon economy via bio refinery. Microalgae technology links carbon dioxide mitigation and bioenergy production.

The CO2 captured from the atmosphere by microalgae via photosynthesis is stored in its biomass. It is converted to value-added products, such as bioenergy (e.g., biogas), bio-oil, biochar, and syngas.

Paper and polylactic acid (PLA) are currently the two most popular alternatives to single-use plastics. While PLA is only biodegradable in industrial composting plants, both paper and bioderived plastics like PLA and many other “plant-based” compostable alternatives could be major greenhouse gas emitters.

We have started the preparation to produce and process large amounts of algae in the northern part of Norway and the first harvest will be done in the fall 2023. Now we look for the first pilot customers to develop high volum production of plastic alternatives based on algae.
