Symbiotic's patented algae cultivation process optimizes the conditions for growing algae under phototrophic and mixotrophic conditions. This process loses minimal water, does not crash, does not get contaminated, uses very little land, and is consistently harvested at 4-5 g/l AFDW every 4 days. The resulting clean water and algal biomass is in high demand and can be used in high value food, cosmetic and nutriceutical products, fish and animal feed, and bio-industrial products.
