Carbon sequestration and sustainable product manufacture by algae using a novel photo-bioreactor

该项目将寻求从修复工业废水产生的藻类中产生新的产品。该项目的基地将设在淡水河谷欧洲镍精炼厂，该厂将供应烟道气二氧化碳。此外，含氮和含磷废物将从当地公司获得，并用作光生物反应器的原料基础。REMEDI！ATE拥有专有知识产权，将为该项目提供一种新型的光生物反应器，并帮助选择将生产的具有最大市场影响潜力的目标化合物。斯旺西还拥有一系列新型光生物反应器，该项目将有助于进一步改进设计，并在规模上比较和对比反应器的二氧化碳修复效率和产量。进一步的新颖性将来自下游工艺的开发，以生产有价值的产品。使用接近商业规模的数据进行生命周期评估将证明已开发产品的可持续性质，导致真正的循环经济和对绿色复苏的影响。

This project will seek to generate new products from algae that will be produced from the remediation of industrial effluents. The project will be based at the Vale Europe Nickel refinery that will supply flue gas carbon dioxide. In addition, nitrogenous and phosphorus waste will be obtained from local companies and used as the basis of feedstock to the photobioreactor. Remedi!ate have proprietary IP and will supply a novel photobioreactor to the project, as well as assist in the selection of target compounds to be produced that have greatest potential for market impact. Swansea also has a series of novel photobioreactors, and this project will facilitate further design improvements as well as comparing and contrasting the reactors at scale for efficiency of CO2 remediation and production yields. Further novelty will be obtained from the development of downstream processes to generate valuable products. Life cycle assessment using near commercial scale data will demonstrate the sustainable nature of the developed products, leading to a true circular economy and impact for green recovery.
