Aquaculture therapeutics
We are using microalgae for the production of a range of aquaculture therapeutics.
Project lead: Ben Hankamer
Marine bioproduct production systems
We are using technoeconomic and life cycle analysis to model microalgae production, harvest and downstream processing systems to produce a range of marine bioproducts.
Project lead: Ben Hankamer
Advanced manufacture and biorefinery
We are developing biorefinery processes to enable the production of multiple products from algae biomass, to optimise process economics.
Project lead: Ben Hankamer
Algal photosynthesis to power advanced chemistry
We are using light to drive challenging chemical conversions and produce robust systems for the synthesis of complex metabolites and pharmacological molecules in algae.
Project leads: Ben Hankamer, Elizabeth Gillam
Integrated bioeconomy and the controlled biosphere
We are developing advanced controlled environment – biosphere - production systems that exceed the industry standard for profitability, sustainability and climatic resilience.
Project leads: Ben Hankamer, Karen Hussey, Susanne Schmidt, Hal Gurgenci, Victor Galea, Fred Fialho Leandro Alves Teixeira
