Olmix and 4 SMEs of Brittany have joined to develop a new sector of full recovery of algae, develop new materials and open up new markets for export. The group called ULVANS (ULves VAlorisation Nutrition Santé), aims to create a new sector of revaluation of algae in Brittany, from harvesting to processing into innovative products in the areas of nutrition and health, animal and plant, and its marketing around the world. ULVANS project will allow the starting up of each of the stages of processing 15,000 tons of green algae to validate the feasibility of the process as well as the development of innovative final products. The ultimate goal is to process more than 60,000 tons of algae per year. During this industrial project, several steps will be carried out involving innovative technologies: collection of green algae in the sea using a new technology of pumping and pressing, storage of algae in industrial quantities, refining of algae, the creation of new products for the sectors of health, animal and vegetal nutrition, the valorization of the whole of the processed seaweed material.
