REALM algae

Growing microalgae in the residual irrigation water of greenhouses? And optimising this cultivation method using artificial intelligence? These are key aspects of our work. Listen to a short introduction to the REALM project and its AI driven control system given by José Luis Guzmán Sánchez from Universidad de Almería https://lnkd.in/eVH_CwVW Thanks to ALGAENAUTS for giving us a stage at their event "From the Blue Economy to Regenerative Agriculture". #REALMalgae #Microalgae #BlueBioeconomy #AlgaeCultivation

What are the legal aspects when producing algae using wastewater, waste gas or inputs from food waste and turning the biomass into fertilisers or feeds? Learn about the current status in Phosphorus Platform's workshop (in Brussels or online): Legal aspects of algae 📆 13th November 🕑 14:00 - 18:00 CET https://lnkd.in/eWga6Ucx #Algae #Bioeconomy

Microalgae can help us treat different types of wastewater and the scientific field around it is still growing our knowledge on microalgae's water treatment potential. In our project we focus on wastewater from agricultural greenhouses, developing a cost-effective alternative to treat it and prevent environmental pollution by excess nutrients. But what about the excess nutrients on fields and how to prevent them from polluting our environment? Quick shout-out to Climate Impetus which developed a method to treat residual irrigation water before it runs off into water bodies, using only natural absorbents.

Treating greenhouse wastewater with microalgae and transforming the produced biomass into microalgae-based products? Take a sneak peek at the work done by our partners from Portugal 👀 ⬇ #Microalgae #BlueBioeconomy

How are Europe's water bodies doing? Not well. Pollution, over-use and climate change continue to threaten water resilience in Europe, finds the new report from the European Environment Agency. Despite progress in some aspects, the pressure on Europe's lakes, rivers, coastal & groundwaters is high like never before. The most important factors affecting our waters include air pollution and the input of nutrients and pesticides from agriculture. Read the full report: https://lnkd.in/gbm7i6Mv #WastewaterManagement

Working toward a more climate-neutral and circular future in the blue-bioeconomy 🌱 What are the key issues of the blue-bioeconomy? What are the next steps that stakeholders should take? Join the interavtive workshops of the BlueMissionBANOS Arena 3 and dive into these questions with other experts in the field. 📍 Amsterdam, Netherlands 📅 26th to 27th November, 2024 The diverse agenda of the Mission Arena 3 includes topics like: Blue bioresources for circular economies Digital twins for sustainable blue economies Blue Skills for the Future: Attracting talent to the blue economy  Environmental Advocacy and Justice: A Youth Workshop And many more For more information and registration visit: https://lnkd.in/e8HWGp7k #MissionArena3 #BlueBioeconomy

Using microalgae or grass to bring circular agriculture forward? Microalgae can grow in the collected unabsorbed irrigation water of crops and decrease the nutrient content in this wastewater. But the microalgae are not only good for treating the water, their biomass can be used to produce bio-stimulants to improve crop growth. This circular approach reuses water and nutrients, reduces the need for fertilisers with a sustainable and natural product while improving crop yields. Another circular approach is all about reusing grass from grasslands to produce protein concentrate from it. It can be fed to pigs and poultry and represents a more sustainable alternative to soy-based feed.

Can microalgae improve the gut health of fish? Microalgae species that improve gut health of fish, can be added it to fish feed to improve animal health. Our partners from GreenCoLab are testing Tetradesmus obliquus for exactly this activity. They presented the results of their ex vivo model experiments at the AQUA24. Check out their poster in case you missed them at the conference ⬇ We are also testing if Tetrademus obliquus can grow in the drain water of soilless greenhouses and decrease the concentration of nutrients. This is a win-win for the aquaculture, agriculture and algae industry: 🌱 farmers can use microalgae to treat their wastewater cost-effectively 💚 microalgae producers can reuse water and nutrients from greenhouses, saving production costs 🐟 aquaculturists can use the grown microalgae in their fish feed to improve animal health with a sustainably produced products #Microalgae #AquaCulture

Microalgae have great potential for application in diverse sectors, yet some challenges remain when producing them. What are the latest developments in microalgae production? What strategies exist to produce them most environmentally friendly? Join this hybrid workshop by CIRCALGAE to hear about it from experts in the field: Best practices on the production and sustainability of microalgae in Europe 📅 Tuesday, 22nd October 2024 🕑 14:00 - 17:30 WEST 📍 Online and in Lisbon, Portugal https://lnkd.in/d2qrApG6 #Microalgae #Workshop
