genetically engineered ALGAE
What We Are Doing
We are custom designing our genetically engineered algae specifically for the purpose of removing CO₂ from the air.
Our algae will be robust and optimized for use under various weather conditions and seasonal temperature variations for any given location around the world.
What They Are Doing
Others are using naturally occurring algae. As algae byproducts can be used in a variety of different industries, algae are being used for making pharmaceuticals, beauty products, supplements, biofuels, animal feed, etc.
Although efficient in CO₂ removal, the primary function for using the algae in this way is not for CO₂ removal from the atmosphere.
Our Algae: Resilient and Effective
- Our genetically engineered algae are individually designed to outperform its naturally occurring counterpart in its ability to remove CO₂ from the air.
- We custom design a specific algae for use at a given location. We use enhanced carbon fertilization in order to optimize the photosynthesis process and remove the most amount of CO₂ possible in the environment it is deployed. In Canada, for example, we use different types of algae in the summer than we would in winter due to seasonal temperature differences.
- We create our custom designed algae using our proprietary 3D biological printer. We find this to be the most efficient way to manufacture the precise type of algae we need for our DAC Everywhere™ units.
- We grow our algae in an AI controlled system inside our DAC Everywhere™ units, thereby ensuring a high quality and clean algae harvest.
- As light facilitates the photosynthesis process, each unit utilizes artificial light to allow for the photosynthesis process to occur around the clock. This significantly increases each unit's total carbon removal capability by effectively almost doubling the amount of time each organism is exposed to light.
3D BioPrinted Algae
- We use cutting edge 3D bioprinting technology to create our custom genetically engineered algae.
- We continue to experiment and develop our proprietary 3D bioprinting technology to minimize the time required to produce the algae.
- We are currently exploring possibilities of scaling up our 3D bioprinting capabilities for mass production outside laboratory conditions.
- Our genetically engineered algae will have the ability to thrive in any location we choose to deploy our DAC Everywhere™, thereby optimizing its ability to remove CO₂ in any environment.
- Work continues with our research partners to develop better genetically engineered algae to achieve our goals.
