The start up Fermentalg focuses on R & D and production of different molecules from microalgae using heterotrophic and mixotrophic mode of culture

WHAT DO WE DO IN FERMENTALG ?

EXTENSIVE ALGAL PRODUCTION PHOTOBIOREACTORS

AUTOTROPHIC USING LIGHT

0.1 g/liter 1 g/liter

Breaking down barriers to commercializing algae-based products

FERMENTERS / BIOREACTORS 100 - 150 g/liter

FOCUS ON ALGAL OMEGA 3 (EPA & DHA)

  • A FUNDAMENTAL NEED

(Cell membrane, brain, heart…)

– Demand for EPA/DHA is expected to rise by 13% – Demand for pharmaceutical and food industry

  • A STRONG DEMAND

  • Fish-oil cannot match population

demand for EPA/DHA

  • Fish stock are depleting fast and can’t

be a sustainable resource

  • Quality issue from fish oil during

complex extraction processing (contaminants, odor, various concentration of EPA/DHA…) Aquaculture is not a solution >2Kg wild fish 1Kg of farmed salmon! High quality EPA / DHA production by microalgae can be the alternative
