Converting Carbon Dioxide Into Protein at Scale and Without Fertile Land

Kaly discusses Arboreas 'breathing cultivation' system for micro algae with which, he asserts, a barren land area the size of Greater New York can generate as much protein as a fertile land area the size of Africa.

Arborea's Biosolar Leaf technology captures carbon dioxide and converts it into food without needing fertile land. The process does not need fermentation tanks, photo-bioreactors or pressurized gases and is completely contained.

The protein is neutral tasting, neutral coloured, water soluble and multi-functional with foaming, emulsifying and gelling properties as well as being highly nutritious.

Key Takeaways

• Arborea’s Biosolar Leaf captures CO₂ and converts it into food without fertile land.


• The system uses a unique ‘breathing cultivation’ method, avoiding costly equipment and contamination risks.


• The protein produced is versatile, nutritious, and highly efficient in yield compared to traditional farming.
