Novel Microalgae Cultivation Platform

Aljadix's carbon negative biofuel is generated from microalgae feedstock that is cultivated in Aljadix’s patented sea-surface container.  The container is designed to massively increase productivity of the algae feedstock.  The cultivation platform is environmentally safe and avoids the severe resource limitations of land-based biofuels (especially the negative effects on farmland and freshwater).  

Sea-surface algae cultivation

•       Does not compete for land 

•       Provides large solar surface area 

•       Controls temperature with ambient ocean 

•       Uses seawater based growth medium, fed-batch 

•       Maximizes nutrient re-use and recycle 

•       Exchanges no liquids or nutrients with the ambient ocean 

•       Minimizes environmental impact in fully sealed floating container only 0.5M thick

•       Achieves lowest cost microalgae production 

Protection and enhancement of the ocean is a fundamental principle of Aljadix's business plan.
