Algae cultivation concept

The CERBERUS algae cultivation system opens up the revolutionary prospect of truly sustainable agriculture or, more precisely, aquaculture. Varied types of algae are likely to become a major resource in the future. Fast-growing algae can be grown for food but also used in medical technology, 3D prototyping, the production of e-fuels, textile processing, and many more applications. The processing technologies are already advanced but little progress has been made in developing systems of cultivation and harvesting. This semi-autonomous system creates a basis for a sustainable working cycle. CERBERUS provides raw material without creating air or water pollution, sparing precious aquatic resources.

JURY STATEMENT

Great design solution that is economically and environmentally feasible.

WINNER STATEMENT

With sustainable development advancing each year, we believe a mindful and visionary approach to future demands is non-debatable. We are honored to be awarded the iF DESIGN TALENT AWARD 2021 for our concept to optimize the harvesting of an ecological resource in an autonomous and circular manner.
