Mixotrophic Innovation
Our commitment to innovation has led us to explore mixotrophy—a groundbreaking growing technique that aims to significantly increase algae biomass while reducing expenses.
Mixotrophy offers a unique solution by integrating both autotrophic and heterotrophic processes for microalgae cultivation. While these methods produce, respectively, oxygen and CO₂ as by-products that need to be removed from the process, in mixotrophy, algae strains can flourish in a closed photobioreactor without the need for a costly ventilation system.
This is made possible through the strategic addition of sugars, or even waste streams from the food industry, enhancing sustainability in algae production.
Key Advantages
By combining both photosynthetic and heterotrophic metabolism, mixotrophy eliminates the need for expensive gas exchange systems while maximizing biomass yield.
This integrated approach allows for better resource utilization and creates a more balanced cultivation environment that can adapt to varying conditions.
Applications
At Algreen, we are excited to bring this expertise to our clients, helping algae producers not only to maximize yield and reduce costs but also to contribute to a more sustainable future in algae cultivation.
