CirkAlg

Macroalgae as carriers of nutrients in a circular food chain – innovative steps towards a protein shift.

In CirkAlg, we explore the potential of Swedish seaweed as a contributor to the food protein transition by developing a two-step circular strategy by which the protein content of seaweed and seaweed-derived products can be further raised.
