ALGAE FOR THE GREEN FUTURE
Unleashing Nature’s Carbon Capturing Power with Technology
The Challenge:
Carbon in the Atmosphere
For over a century, burning fossil fuels like coal and oil has significantly increased CO₂ levels, driving climate change. To put it in perspective, we emit approximately 57 gigatons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere each year. Over time, we've released more than 1,000 gigatons, contributing to global warming. While nature helps capture CO₂ through trees and algae in the ocean, this process only captures around 1 gigaton annually. Even if we achieve carbon net zero, it would still take over 1,000 years to return atmospheric CO₂ levels to their previous state.
Renewable energy sources like solar and wind power are reducing emissions, but they don't tackle the CO₂ already present in the atmosphere. To truly combat climate change, we need solutions that not only reduce emissions but also remove existing carbon from the air.
Nature’s Solution to a Global Problem
The most effective way to fight climate change is by harnessing nature's power. Microalgae are among the most efficient carbon-capturing organisms on Earth, with a carbon capture ability 400 times greater than trees. They are also responsible for producing 60% of the oxygen we breathe. These tiny organisms rapidly multiply and sequester CO₂ as sugars through photosynthesis, providing a fast and scalable solution to combat climate change. Their remarkable ability makes microalgae a highly suitable solution for addressing global warming.
Revolutionizing Carbon Capture with Cutting-Edge Technology
At Alcarbo Technologies, we’re addressing one of the world’s greatest challenges—global warming—using algae. Growing algae is no easy feat, with methods ranging from ponds and raceways to tubular photobioreactors. Our innovative algae photobioreactor captures carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere. Designed to withstand extreme weather conditions like typhoons, these units can be placed in various locations. By harnessing the natural power of microalgae, we’re transforming CO₂ into a solution for a sustainable future.
