Cereplast leverages algae biomass generated from post-industrial processes
In Indiana, Cereplast reports they are advancing in the research and development stage to bring to the market a more sustainable and cost efficient process for the development of algae bioplastic resins. By using an algae biomass selection process in which food-based materials are not fed to the algae for growth, the food chain is not impacted, increasing sustainability. The material is also expected to lower costs in algae bioplastics development by deploying post-industrial processes, enabling the re-use of materials, This includes processes such as nutrient recovery from effluent waste streams and from carbon dioxide sequestration systems. The secondary use of the material results in cost savings and increased efficiency due to material re-usage.
