Olgæ

Modern farms suffer from many dependencies on external resources. The needs for energy, nitrogen and water are particularly important. At the same time, waste such as livestock effluents or CO2 from methanisation is very little recycled. Based on this, Olgæ offers farmers a new tool to produce the resources they need from their waste. This solution is based on a very special family of microorganisms: microalgae. The idea is to have them produce lipids and proteins, which they then use for biofuel and animal feed. Upstream of the system, waste is integrated to meet the nutrient needs of microalgae. Rainwater is only a support and available as an outlet for irrigation. One Olgæ station can produce 10,000 litres of biofuel, 56 tonnes of soybean meal equivalent and 6,000 m3 of water simultaneously.
