We are very excited to welcome you in the next WG5 that this time will be combined with WG6 (Algae for materials) meeting with title:
“Algae industry recovering nutrients from effluents to use in agricultural products”.
The meeting will take place on 25. June at 14.00-16.00CET online.
While we will present results from the advanced by now “EU4Algae: connecting the dots on algae bioremediation solutions”, which WG5 helped to co-develop,
in this WG5/WG6 meeting we will feature good practices that recycle nutrients from effluents and wastewaters for production of algae-based fertiliser and biostimulant products, with disgtinguished industry guests: Frank Rogalla, Aqualia & Joachim Pozo, Biorizon Biotech.
Furthermore as a new WG5 action point, together with Marcella de Souza (University of Ghent) will introduce to you to the DG MARE project called,
"Study to Support the Sustainable Algae Industry", which lies in the nexus between: algae industry recovering nutrients from effluents to use in (organic) agricultural products.
Agenda:
