Air purifier that fights climate change

Pitch

We are Algy and we want to help you breathe.
We are building network of fully-automated microalgae growing aquariums that filters indoor air and removes excess CO2.
As world is shifting to clean and sustainable solutions in many industries,
there is increasing demand for biobased products – microalgae based product market is growing rapidly. We are planning to be biggest microalgae biomass producer in Europe.
Furthermore, we help our clients maintain optimal indoor air quality. Maintained optimal CO2 levels indoors means 15% increased productivity and less sick days, of witch 5 is attributed to poor indoor ventilation.
Our product – is fully automated microalgae growing aquarium. It occupies 1m2 of floor space, can be different sizes for different needs. This small bio-reactor uses CO2 to grow algae, witch we collect every 2 weeks and provide full servicing and maintenance.
Finally, sustainably grown microalgae biomass is converted into high quality, high value bio based products
