This places KAS as the first and only company to achieve a patented, scalable industrial manufacturing platform for Chlamydomonas by fermentation.; The breadth of the patent estate covers aerobic fermentation across a group of algae called the Chlamydomonadales, normally grown photosynthetically. The novel process uses the facultative heterotrophic nature of the cells to become powerhouse production factories under the right conditions of dark cultivation; no light is required.; Fermentation is an extremely fast process, producing 1 ton of product from seed flask in just two weeks. It offers a very favorable land and water footprint compared to other plant proteins and employs software-controlled precision cultivation for best outcomes.; The patent estate enables a set of ingredients from Chlamydomonas and other species that are pivotal for plant-based foods and animal feeds.
