Step 1: Mixing & Recipes
Remediiate has refined and enhanced the process of delivering the input ingredients to the algae to ensure a healthy diet. These ingredients include for instance correct levels of CO₂, nutrients, vitamins. Beyond that, it's about circadian cycles. All of this is articulated in the concept of a ‘Growth Protocol’. Remediiate has developed a range of specific 'Growth Protocols' - a library of proven process steps which recreates the optimal conditions to cultivate the specific species of microalgae which expresses the required biochemical composition at the optimum harvest rate.
Step 2: Culturing
Culturing of microalgae takes place with our Photobioreactor (PBR), designed to ensure maximum microalgae exposure to photons during their growth period. Patent pending design of our lights, internal topology, aeration and CO₂ dosing ensures far greater productivity compared to industry averages.
Thermal management is at the core of ensuring low cost operations.
Step 3: Harvesting
Rapid dewatering and drying of the microalgae to produce a shelf stable product is the final step in our process. Patented technology in this area enables Remediiate to deliver this step in minutes in place of hours, at an order of magnitude lower costs than traditional methods. Additionally, the majority of the water extracted is recycled back to the system.
Step 4: Command & Control
At the core of our process is a machine-learning AI command and
control system. Remediiate proprietary algorithms monitor 100’s of sensors across the installation, identifying the optimal time to harvest, based on the microalgae growth profile feeding back to the operational SCADA system when to open and close values. This cloud-based system also informs the maintenance department of impending failures and manages the cleaning regimes.

We process carbon waste from industrial flue stacks and use it to accelerate the growth of microalgae in bioreactors. The result is tonnes of valuable microalgae with numerous use cases; currently we are focused on the animal feed producer market.
Our process
Benefits for emitters
With over 20 billion tonnes of carbon emitted from industrial processes and power generation each year, emitters face escalating social and political pressures to act. Taxes and restrictions punish emitters which inhibit industry without solving the problem. What if waste carbon could become a valuable asset on the global marketplace? By processing emissions at source and selling them at market, industry has an opportunity to swap a '500-billion-dollar' carbon tax liability for a '2.5 trillion-dollar' opportunity.
Nutrition where it’s needed
In addition to the carbon crisis, humanity faces another looming challenge. The world’s population is expected to increase by an additional two billion by 2050 – meaning that over the next three decades, we will have to produce more food than has been harvested in human history. We need an alternative source of nutrient-rich food that won’t contribute to carbon through deforestation and animal farming. Microalgae is rich in protein, carbohydrates and nutrients – a potential food source to fuel the next century of growth.
Supporting Net-Zero
Net-zero has gone from a niche vision to a global target. Our model provides a route to help achieve an energy transition sustainably and at scale. By refining carbon into microalgae, we can deliver on the promise of radical circularity, ensuring that industry can thrive without negative externalities. We have already attracted interest from governments, especially as doubts have arisen about the validity of some carbon offsetting methodologies.
Applied innovation
Our team combines world-leading expertise in microbiology, engineering and business to deliver a microalgae solution that’s profitable, sustainable and scalable. We have taken this from concept to reality, proving beyond doubt that we have the technology and capacity to make microalgae 'carbon-refining' viable on a global scale.
