Current Situation:

In progress

Summary

The objective of this project is to develop and evaluate different technologies to maximize the performance of Spirulina platensis cultures and to design the optimal reactors for the outdoor production of biomass if this strain for human-related uses. The challenge is to duplicate the current biomass productivity per unit surface (20 g/m2·day) on an annual basis, at the same time minimizing the biomass production cost to achieve profitable industrial processes at scale up to 3 ha.

Objective:

  • Maximization of the productivity of S. platensis for human consumption.
  • Optimization of photobioreactors designed for human-related uses.
  • Duplicate the current areal productivity of S. platensis
