H2Boost project
CyanoCapture's technology has been deployed at the £5 million Biorenewables Development Centre / Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (ESNZ) H2Boost project.
The H2Boost project aims to produce biohydrogen using dark fermentation (DF) from biomass that will undergo pretreatment with advanced oxidation methods. H2Boost will integrate with Anaerobic Digestion (AD) facilities to provide improved AD feedstock, increase biomethane and maximise the CCSU potential by using the AD digestate as a nutrient feedstock for the CCSU stage.
The company has stated that its PBR model can capture CO2 emissions from biohydrogen production by leveraging our fast-growing cyanobacteria strain. It is the first time CyanoCapture's platform strain has been used for major biogenic CO2 capture and utilisation.
COSEC project
The COSEC project led by CyanoCapture has been awarded a €4,000,000 Horizon grant from the European Commission to scale up outdoor cultivation of resilient microalgae and cyanobacteria to capture biogenic flue gases.
The consortium will be demonstrating CO2 capture and downstream conversion of biomass via anaerobic digestion and hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL)at the PhytoBloom - Microalgae by Necton facility in Olhao, Portugal 2024-2027.
