Algae.Tec executive chairman Roger Stroud said the commissioning process is on track for production of algae biomass in early June while capacity will be ramped up by the end of June.
"The Algae.Tec facility is positioned to take a carbon dioxide feed from the Manildra Groups manufacturing facility," Stroud said.
The facility employs bioreactor technology and is equipped with associated racks, piping, and separation tanks.
Algae.Tec said that full testing and final validation is now underway at the unit.
The Algae Manufacturing and Development Centre in Atlanta, US assembled and shipped the initial bioreactors for the facility.
Algae.Tec technical director US Earl McConchie is overseeing the commissioning team at the location.
