Microalgae in the food industry


Project description

The project will draw on Norwegian and Icelandic expertise to develop and scale up the use of terrestrial and maritime microalgae for use in fodder, as well as in food and medicine. The project will develop production methods and identify the potential market for raw and processed products. The project will lay the groundwork for the production of algae in order to secure food and nutrition for a growing world population. Increased microalgae production will reduce the need for fodder imports and help alleviate pressure on the climate.

NORA funding in 2022: DKK 500,000
