The available database comprises research projects in Fisheries, Aquaculture, Seafood Processing and Marine Biotechnology active in the time period 2003-2022.
BlueBio is an ERA-NET COFUND created to directly identify new and improve existing ways of bringing bio-based products and services to the market and find new ways of creating value from in the blue bioeconomy.

This project will demonstrate on large scale the sustainable production of bio-fuels based on low-cost microalgae cultures. The full chain of processes from algal ponds to biomass separation, processing for oil and other chemicals extraction, and downstream biofuel production, as well as the use in vehicles, will be implemented on a 10 ha site in Chiclana, in the South of Spain. Wastewater influent and nutrients will be re-used to stimulate algae growth. The specified algae yield of 100t/ha/year will be obtained by integrating and upscaling innovative systems to double algal yield. The biofuel produced will be enough to run close 200 cars. As some key process elements have not yet been proven on industrial scale, the technical risks will be limited by an initial prototype phase. The prototype as well as the future full-scale facility will be investigated for environmental and social impacts order to maximize sustainability.
