Convocatoria 2020 Proyectos de I+D en el marco del Programa Operativo FEDER Andalucía 2014-2020.

Current Situation:

Completed

Summary

The starting hypothesis of the ALGFOOD project is that it is possible to produce safe, high-quality functional foods that are well accepted by consumers using microalgae produced in a sustainable, efficient manner and at a competitive price using photobioreactors that operate with artificial light and using combustion gases that normally end up in the atmosphere.

Objectives:

  • Evaluate the production of S. platensis with combustion gases for human-related uses..
  • Evaluation of the final consumer acceptance of such products.
