Scaling-up Services:
Scaling up seaweed cultivation requires integrating biology, engineering, and operations into a reliable, high-performance system. Totally Seaweed provides technical expertise to help companies move from pilot scale to commercial production with confidence, moving faster with lower risk.
1. SITE & INFRASTRUCTURE
Site Selection
Identify optimal locations based on water quality, light, logistics, regulatory constraints, and cost structure.
Vessel Design
Design cultivation ponds, tanks, and raceways tailored to species biology, flow dynamics, and operational goals.Nursery Design & Operations
Create efficient, biosecure nursery and unialgal systems for starting stock, harvest and transport biomass efficiently.
2. WATER & NUTRIENTS
Seawater Flow Requirements
Determine exchange rates, and plumbing design for healthy, high-quality biomass.Water Movement
Optimize boundary-layer conditions, and hydrodynamics to maximize productivity, whether induced by paddle-wheels or aeration.Nutrient Optimization
Develop nutrient delivery strategies to support high productivity without enhancing epiphytic overgrowth.Lighting Considerations
Optimize spectrum, intensity, and photoperiod for species-specific requirements.
