Company Performance Metrics
Blue2 develops an intensified, low-cost microalgae production technology based on proprietary and so far confidential photobioreactor (PBR) and high-performing algal strains. Using industrial CO₂ as a feedstock, Blue2 produces natural, high-value ingredients for the cosmetic, chemical and nutraceutical industries. The novelty of the technology is
in intensifying and adapting the culture to industrial conditions, where the solution will be implemented under the shape of a compact container with a PBR and the associated processes inside. Over the past two years, Blue2 activity focuses on the Upstream process (USP) with a proprietary PBR and the selection of new microalgae species which can be brought at industrial scale and can well tolerate the industrial gases. These species will be able to produce relevant products for the industries above mentioned, such as: pigments with an antioxidant function and co-products to serve the same industries such as (PUFAs, polysaccharides, UV-screen molecules), or other markets such as biofertilizers for agriculture, ensuring maximum biomass valorisation and minimal waste. Cultures will be remotely monitored and operated by Blue2 to ensure stability, productivity, and minimal on-site handling.
