During the afternoon of Tuesday 18th April, a day prior to the summit, a limited number of conference delegates will have the unique opportunity to visit Green Aqua’s BIOFAT.PT industrial project at ALGATEC Eco Business Park.
ALGATEC Eco Business Park is the result of a partnership between Green Aqua group, A4F Algae for Future group and the chemical company HyChem. Located near Lisbon, where the Tagus river meets the Atlantic Ocean, ALGATEC benefits from a privileged location. Rich in raw materials and industrial infrastructures, it is designed to welcome companies and projects in the algae and microalgae sector, promoting innovation and sustainable development.
Promoted by Green Aqua, BIOFAT.PT is the largest industrial project located in the Eco Business Park. Occupying an area of 10 hectares, it aims to produce 270 tons of microalgae per year, for the extraction of an oil rich in Omega-3 and high-quality protein for food supplements. BIOFAT.PT is a direct consequence of the European FP7 research project BIOFAT.
There is no extra charge to join the site visit, although places are limited and allocated to the conference delegates on first come first served basis. Therefore, we would strongly suggest to book your place early to avoid disappointment.
Please note that, due to compliance reasons, attendance is subject to approval by Green Aqua.

Carniolus was founded in 2014. We design, engineer and construct microalgae production plants based on proprietary bioreactor designs.
We offer LED-powered bioreactors ( 400 & 1000 liters) for R&D purposes and sample production. Our medium and big scale bioreactors are solar powered and collect the sunlight using our patented Light Concentration Panels (LCPs). In addition, we offer a Parallel-Hybrid Bioreactor (1.000 liters) using a combination of our LCP system and LED- power to augment insufficient sunlight in challenging locations. Our big-scale bioreactors of 2m³ and 5 m³ are powered by LCPs only. These bioreactor-types can be combined for plant units of 200 m³ and bigger.
Our plants are equipped with an automatic plant control system enabling single-person plant operation.
Our bioreactor systems are extremely compact and provide the best ratio of plant footprint to algae productivity. A plant yielding approx. 40 tons of algae/ year would require an area of only 1.500 m² of land, incl. infrastructure and downstreamprocessing equipment.
Carniolus can supply a proprietary microfiltration-based algae harvester which operates fully automatic. We can supply a customized process-water recycling-plant which recycles > 95% of the process water, a massive advantage in arid areas.
Carniolus also specializes in poly-unsaturated lipid extraction using organic solvents. We supply colorless, and odor-free EPA and DHA for health food applications and we are developing “Augmented Function” products for end-users who want to simplify healthy nutrition by consuming multi-functional vegan Omega-3 products.

AlgaeMetrics was founded to design and manufacture the next generation of Microalgae Research instrumentation. We work hand-in-hand with our customers to ensure that our direction is the most advanced possible, with a variety of upwardly mobile designs.
We believe in enabling scientists with the right tools to expedite their research. AlgaeMetrics systems are for scientific researchers who covet turnkey systems to provide actionable results. Unlike other systems, our systems are borne from our own frustration having to customize commercial off the shelf systems to meet our needs.
Our photo bioreactors, the PBR102-Gen-II allows the user to study inside the lab specific strains of algae by creating the same conditions found outside in a pond, or the conditions for a large indoor bioreactor, all controlled by the Algal CommandTM software. The PBR102-Gen-II has a bright LED light that simulates the sun rising and setting every day. Also, the temperature can be set to go up and down during the day just like it does in a real outdoor pond.
Using the Algal CommandTM software the PBR102 can be programmed by itself or in a matrix of up to 12 for comparative analysis or to evaluate different algae strains simultaneously on one computer. This compresses research time into days or weeks, not months or years. It saves time and money.

EUREC, the Association of Renewable Energy Research Centers, promotes European research and education activities for the renewable energy sector, and supports the development of innovative technologies to enable the transition to a sustainable energy system. The organisation was founded in 1991 as European Economic Interest Grouping (E.E.I.G.).
EUREC’s members are prominent research and development (R&D) groups spread across Europe, operating in all renewable energy technologies. Our members also conduct research into supporting technologies such as energy efficiency, storage, distribution and integration, and undertake studies to evaluate the social and economic aspects surrounding renewable energy.
Apart from work in policy development and education and training (through the European Masters programmes), EUREC is involved – to varying levels from communication to coordination or advisory – in numerous European co-funded projects centred on renewable technologies. These technologies revolve around a wide array of technologies (wind, biomass, small hydro, marine, geothermal, photovoltaics, solar thermal electricity, and solar thermal heating and cooling).
EUREC is a partner of the European Technology and Innovation Platform Bioenergy – Support of Renewable Fuels and Advanced Bioenergy Stakeholders (ETIP-B2022-2025) project that aims at triggering collaborative efforts of stakeholders from research to innovation to implementation in the field of renewable fuels and bioenergy. The ETIP Bioenergy aims to actively engage with stakeholders and civil society, link their needs to policy making of the European Union and Member States, and provide advice to industry.
European Bioenergy Future (EBF 2022) conference will resume in Brussels, allowing the biomass industry to meet again in person! The EBF2022 will take place on 22-23 November at the prestigious Steigenberger Wiltcher Hotel.
This two-day conference is expected to be attended by +150 participants from the bioenergy business sector as well as institutional players.
The EBF aims to link European policies and bioenergy markets, with a focus on how EU legislation will affect biomass supply and carbon capture and storage (BECCS). The event will cover a variety of topics, including: sustainability, REPowerEU, pellets, wood chips, bioenergy carriers and energy-intensive industries.”

• A pre-event informal introduction the evening before the conference
• A minimum of five hours’ networking built into the two day conference agenda
• A networking grid which enables you to make your target contacts aware you are looking for them
• The option to join either social drinks or dinner during the evening of Day One
• ACI’s on-site team will assist you in locating your hard-to-find target contacts & make face-to-face introductions
