Another Spirulina production project completed for Algae Bulgaria. The system combines a 20 m3, quadriplex Phyco-Flow with a 28 m3 high rate Phyco-Pond for the production of high quality fresh Spirulina. ...
Researchers will use the tubular photobioreactor, situated on the Lahti campus (Faculty of Biological and Environmental Sciences), to cultivate microalgae in support of their on-going projects. One such project, Algae Factory, funded by Business Finland, focuses on producing microalgal biomass using nutrient rich side streams. The ...
After dealing with Harmful Agal Blooms (HABs) in recent summers, the New York State Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation decided on a new approach at Lake Welch, applying a new algae prevention strategy. This project covers a 216-acre lake sited in Harriman State Park, New York. ...
These are the top 8 stories from 2020: New water quality treatment projects Continued algae management success Success of sea lice research project Introduction of a water quality monitoring buoy Launched a series of webinars Opened our new corporate headquarters Integration of weather data in our buoy What’s next? ...
We will showcase our environmentally friendly algae management solutions. You are welcome to visit us in booth 5813 at the Netherlands Water Pavilion. ...
A floating solar powered algae control system was installed in Emmitsburg (US) to control algae in a reservoir that provides drinking water to approximately 3,000 people. The MPC-Buoy system, installed in April 2017, succeeds in controlling algae, reducing chemical costs and water usage. The Challenge: Control Algae Problems The ...
The project started in December 2016 and so far, the project appeared to be of great success with the blue-green algae count over summer 90 per cent less than the previous year. The Challenge: Reduce Blue-green Algae Count The main objective for this project was to reduce the blue-green algae ...
The company’s revenue grew for the fifth consecutive year and with new MPC-Buoy installations in Belgium, United Kingdom, Ecuador, Peru and United States, LG Sonic is now running MPC-Buoy algae control projects in more than 17 countries worldwide. Next year will see the introduction of MPC-Lab, this system will combine the most innovative methods for ...
On July 11, 2017, DOE announced the selection of three projects focused on reducing the costs of producing algal biofuels and bioproducts that will receive up to $8 million in funding. The projects aim to generate high-impact tools and techniques for increasing the productivity of algae organisms and cultures and biology-focused breakthroughs. ...
Solid wastes remaining after digestion will be stabilized in nearby artificial wetlands, then used as organic fertilizer. The algae used in the project are exceedingly important. The researchers are using specific types of blue-green algae, which are optimized in the photobioreactors to produce bioplastics. ...
Department of Energy (DOE), announced $15 million in funding for three projects that will work to improve algal biomass yields to reduce production costs of algae-based biofuels and bioproducts. The projects include Global Algae Innovations (San Diego, California), Algenol Biotech LLC (Ft. ...
As part of the Clearwater PMPC project, 2 MPC Buoys were deployed in the Skrzyneckie Małe Lake to test the performance of this unique technology. The Challenge: Control and Monitor Toxic Algal Blooms The ClearWaterPMPC project was initiated by LG Sound and funded by "Research for SMEs" within the EU 7th Framework Programme. The goal of the ClearWaterPMPC ...
After the installation of the MPC-Buoy systems a dramatic reduction in the concentration of algae was experienced. The Challenge: Installing an Environmentally Friendly Solution to Control Algal Blooms The objective of the project was to reduce algae concentrations . Algae growth in the lakes can cause blockages which is why ...
LG Sonic installed four ultrasonic algae control systems, the MPC-Buoy, in recreational lake “de Zoetermeerse Plas” located in South Holland, the Netherlands. This environmentally friendly system controls toxic algal blooms by using ultrasound technology. It is the first algae control project of LG Sonic in their domestic market. ...
A few weeks later, EPA’s Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) announced a project intended to support public dialog concerning the development and use of biotechnology by developing a new algae ‘‘how to’’ document for Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) purposes, and to help jump start much needed public discourse around ...
. - 4:00 p.m., and will include a discussion of Notice of Commencement (NOC), biotech, "bona fide," and Significant New Use Rules (SNUR) Alternate Control Measures electronic submissions. The inclusion of biotechnology algae in the third and final webinars was previously mentioned in the announcement of the "US Environmental Protection Agency Biotechnology Algae ...
EPA's recently posted document, US Environmental Protection Agency GM/Synbio Algae Project, states that it is focusing its project around GM/Synbio algae applications. ...
Department of Energy (DOE) announced $18 million in funding for six projects to develop bioproducts and biofuels from algae. The funding is intended to reduce the cost of algae-based biofuels to less than $5 per gasoline gallon equivalent (gge) by 2019 to help reach DOE's target of $3 per gge for advanced algal biofuels by 2030. The ...
In a project involving algae-biofuel production (extracting lipids from aquaculture-farmed algae to produce liquid biofuels) researchers at Texas A&M University are looking at ways to utilise the leftover coproduct as organic fertiliser, because the dry algae coproduct still contains valuable nutrients. A part of the ...
