CHARACTERISTICS OF MICROALGAE PRODUCTION Efficient biologycal system for using solar energy, CO2 and mineral salts in order to generate nutritional products of greatimportance.

ADVANTAGES
Algae need light and our production plant is located in one of the highest irradiation area on earth. Astaxanthin production requires a high salty environment and we countwith big “Salares” Microalgae are cultured in an environment free of any contamination. Our plant is located in one of the dryest desert and less contaminated place in the world.

Atacama Bio´splant, is located in one of the best solar irradiated zones in the world

Altitude, clear sky and the amount of solar irradiation exposure over the Atacama desert, provides the north of Chile withirradiation values of 2 2800 kWh/m a
