Op de Hannover Messe 2023 presenteert Festo de volgende stap op weg naar de industrialisatie van biologische transformatie: BionicCellFactory. Met automatiseringstechnologie van Festo kan biomassa op grote schaal worden gekweekt op een zeer efficiënte, grondstofbesparende manier. Alles wat we momenteel produceren uit ruwe olie, dat enorme CO2-uitstoot veroorzaakt, kan ook duurzaam uit algen worden verkregen. Met de BionicCellFactory demonstreert ...

Algae are small climate savers. Even in their natural state they are extremely efficient photosynthesizers and absorb ten times more carbon dioxide (CO₂) than land plants. In bioreactors equipped with appropriate sensors, control technology and automation, the efficiency of algae can be increased to a hundred times that of land plants. This shows that they have a significant potential for a climate-neutral circular economy. With the PhotoBionicCell ...

Festo and Q.ANT, a wholly owned subsidiary of TRUMPF, are entering into a strategic partnership to cultivate biomass on an industrial scale. The two companies aim to achieve this using a combination of automation technology from Festo and quantum technology from Q.ANT. Algae offers significant potential in this context.
