Carbon capture from syngas to Single Cell Protein (SCP) and use as fish feed ingredient

WAI Environmental Solutions provides innovative solutions to improve sustainability of the high carbon emission companies and the waste management industry.

Summary

SynoProtein aims to develop and demonstrate a carbon-negative process that converts residues from sawmills into single-cell proteins for fish feed, as well as producing biochar for animal feed. Furthermore, for every dry tonne of sawmill by-product that it processes, the system can capture the equivalent of 1.97 tonnes of CO2.
By transforming low-value by-products into high-value bio-products, SynoProtein will provide a sustainable alternative protein source to soybean, cultivation of which is energy and climate intensive, and wild fish protein, resources of which are limited. It will thus help to meet future protein demand, while addressing negative environmental impacts of and adding value to sawmill residue management and aquaculture.

Feedstocks: Biogenic gaseous carbon, Forest-based residues

Main Products: Single-Cell Protein (SCP)
