Nutrients produced by microorganisms utilising primarily CO2 from the air, with the support of biotechnology
Funds companies and researchers scaling up precision-fermentation microorganisms that turn captured CO2 into food nutrients.
Nutrients produced by microorganisms utilising primarily CO2 from the air, with the support of biotechnology is a Horizon Europe Innovation Action from the European Commission that funds companies and researchers scaling up precision-fermentation microorganisms that turn captured CO2 into food nutrients; companies are eligible to take part directly. It runs as a single-stage action, paid as a lump…
This call wants proposals that scale up precision fermentation using genetically engineered microorganisms to turn captured CO2 into nutrients such as enzymes and fats for food use. It wants cost and investment analysis, pilot-plant improvements, and new business models for industry and in-situ deployment.
