Industrial Carbon Utilization

Convert CO₂ Into Revenue

Industrial-scale microalgal biorefinery. Transform mandatory carbon compliance into a profitable operation.

The Challenge

India's Carbon Compliance Crisis

Industrial carbon intensity targets are mandatory. But no system makes compliance profitable.

1
Compliance Pressure
CCTS enforcement (FY2026+) forces 700+ industrial facilities to reduce CO₂ intensity or buy credits at ₹200–1,500/tonne.
2
No Profitable Path
Current decarbonization options either cost too much (green hydrogen) or reduce emissions without generating revenue.
3
Capital Inefficiency
₹47 lakh crore estimated capex for India's sectors to reach net-zero. Long payback. Structural financial pressure.
The Answer

BIOLOOP: Co-Located Carbon Utilization

Place a biorefinery at the CO₂ source. Convert emissions into high-value biomass for industrial customers.

BIOLOOP deploys closed-loop photobioreactors at industrial facilities (cement, steel, power plants) to capture direct CO₂ emissions and convert them into standardized microalgal biomass.

The biomass is sold to downstream manufacturers of phycocyanin, protein ingredients, natural pigments, and aquaculture feed — creating a multi-revenue model that de-risks commodity pricing.

  • ✓ Zero CO₂ sourcing cost: Uses partner's direct flue gas (free input)
  • ✓ Energy self-sufficient: 60%+ powered by waste heat + biogas recovery
  • ✓ Land minimized: Closed PBRs use 10× less land than traditional algae
  • ✓ Multi-stream revenue: Biomass + carbon credits + operational margins
  • ✓ 15-year contracts: Partner-funded capex, recurring revenue model
🔄
Industrial CO₂ → Biomass
Closed photobioreactors convert direct flue gas into standardized microalgal biomass. Zero standalone infrastructure. 10 Ha facility = 2–4 MT/year production.
Technical Foundation

Proven Science. Integrated Engineering.

Every component is validated. The innovation is systems-level integration.

🧬 Biological Foundation
Microalgae cultivation is peer-reviewed and operationally proven at commercial scale (Spirulina, Chlorella globally; Haematococcus astaxanthin at Cyanotech, Algalif).
⚙️ Process Integration
Co-location with industrial partner eliminates capex barriers (no CO₂ sourcing, waste heat recovered, site provided) and reduces unit economics by 70–80%.
♻️ Energy Efficiency
Closed PBRs + flocculation harvesting + waste heat recovery + biogas CHP = EROI 1.5–2.5× (vs 0.13–0.71× for standalone systems).
📦 Market Ready
Biomass sold as standardized intermediate to downstream processors. No dependency on single market. Aquaculture, pharma, food ingredients all viable.
