Power Algae

We have developed microalgae photobioreactors that enable cultivation also in the Nordic climate. The designed system uses the CO2 directly from the biomass-based energy utilities flue gas and also excess heat. From the equipment engineering start-up, we now strive to grow into a company that uses this technology for cultivating microalgae and is making products thereof (based on the cascading principle). We have found confidence in the fish/animal feed sector, but now strive to launch products with higher value - targeting the market of antimicrobial compounds.

Project Blue

After being in the aquaculture farming industry for 10-years, I have identified a clear need for disruption from a commercial perspective, to support new species and purpose-driven farmers. This will not be a marketplace or IT platform. It’s a full ecosystem that empowers farmers in a multi-directional fashion towards a more resilient value-chain for all relevant stakeholders. Through our integrated model emphasizing fair distribution and value creation, rendering us up to 15% more competitive, while farmers retain up to 30% better value for their produce.

Project Greenland: 350 Trillion Liters Arctic Freshwater For Drought-Stricken Regions

Commercial exploitation of Greenland’s freshwater for drought-stricken regions In 2017, the Government of Greenland published a new strategy for the export of ice and water from Greenland’s large freshwater resources, where the large inland ice sheet alone represents approximately 10% of the world’s total freshwater resource. GEUS, an independent scientific research and advisory institution in Denmark was charged by Greenland’s government to identify suitable locations for extraction of drinking water from meltwater rivers. Glaciers in Greenland and the Greenlandic ice cap are home to the largest reservoir of freshwater on earth and second only to oceans as the largest reservoir for water in total. The pure, pristine melted surface water from large ice caps and glaciers, 100,000 years old is free of industrial pollutants, toxins, micro plastics, chemicals, PFAS. The global demand for freshwater is projected to outstrip supply by 40% by 2030. Climate change, groundwater mismanagement, exponential population growth and pollution make freshwater the single most precious resource and impact investment opportunity in history. Thomas Schumann Capital's Greenland partners ship the first-ever bulk freshwater tankers in 2024.

PRONOE

Pronoe is a CO2 removal company. We restore the ocean’s natural ability to capture and permanently store CO2 from the air, in a sustainable, scalable and asset-light manner. In practice, we design automated water treatment systems that seamlessly integrate into the operations of existing coastal industries. As a result, Pronoe’s activities generate high-quality CO2 removal certificates to customers, valorize otherwise wasted effluents, and locally mitigate ocean acidification. To the benefit of the climate, coastal communities and ecosystems, worldwide.

PurOceans Technology Sia

The pioneering, eco-friendly technology performs sophisticated water bottom cleaning in the most cost and time-efficient way, providing a positive impact on the environment. PurOceans can clean up floors of the water bodies from oil, microplastic and chemical sediments without: Applying any bio/chemical substances, Mechanical intervention/lifting of soil, Using electric impulses, Other nowadays methods, that one way, or another, harm flora and fauna. And, it has a number of advantages: New technology - eliminate the pollution from waterbodys floor on the depth of 25 meters (in future up to 200 meters depth), Provide efficient cleaning (proven results - 98% of water/floor purification), Eco-friendly solution no chemical/mechanical intervention, No adverse effect - no damage to flora & fauna in any way. How it works: The technology is based on the principle of FLOTATION (molecular adhesion of petroleum hydrocarbons to the boundary between two phases air and liquid).

R&D Innovation Services

In our innovation-driven startup, KorallionBio, microalgae take centre stage. For each sustainability question we meticulously select the ideal microalgal strains and optimise the growth, induction of biosynthesis and downstream processing methods in order to bring novel biobased products to market. The idea is simple: KorallionBio‘s cascade approach focuses on maximizing the value from a production process by using every part of the materials involved. It starts with creating an initial product, where anything not used is typically considered waste. In the next step, this leftover material is further processed to extract any remaining useful products or ingredients. At this point, KorallionBio steps in using microalgae, which convert the remaining nutrients and molecules in this waste into high-value biomolecules. This final step ensures that all possible value is extracted and nothing goes to waste.
