Feasibility Study
Unlock the Full Potential of Seaweed Cultivation Before Investing
Our Feasibility Study service provides data-driven insights to help you determine the viability of seaweed production – either at your site or based on your specific compound targets. Whether you aim to cultivate seaweed yourself or source it from others, we help you select the right strain, optimize growth conditions and assess commercial feasibility before scaling up.
Scope
We conduct controlled trials using our Laboratory Setup or a VALUEFARM Container to evaluate:
Strain Performance to identify high-yielding or compound-rich strains suitable for your needs.
Growth Optimization for fine-tuning key parameters like light, nutrients, water flow, and temperature.
Production Projections for estimating biomass yield under real-world conditions.
Scalability & ROI to assess economic feasibility before investing in full-scale operations.
Deliverables
PowerPoint Presentation: Growth performance, yield data, and key insights for decision-making, presented by one of our experimental managers.
Grow-Out Samples: Delivery of cultivated seaweed biomass for downstream testing and product development.
Tailored Recommendations: Evaluation of the next steps to optimize production, improve strain selection, or integrate findings into your business model.
Your benefits
Our Feasibility Study reduces uncertainty and supports data-driven decisions across sectors. It enables seaweed producers to select strains and validate business potential, biotech companies to optimize for specific compounds, and aquaculture facilities to assess the potential for an IMRAS integration.
Ideal for:
✓ Strain viability testing
✓ Compound optimization
✓ De-risking upscaling
Best suited for:
RAS
Biotech
Why choose it:
Reduce uncertainty before committing investment capital
Data-driven decisions based on parameter testing
Close communication with experts and tailored recommendations
From Feasibility Assessment to Project Planning
Our Feasibility Study is often the first step for clients evaluating biological performance, system selection and operational potential. When technical guidance is required beyond the analytical phase, our Consultancy Services support decision-making across engineering, cultivation workflows and project planning.
A feasibility study forms the natural link between concept and practical implementation. In the Laboratory Setup, assumptions, risks, and key parameters identified during the feasibility study can be tested under controlled conditions. This allows biological performance, operational strategies, and technical choices to be validated at small scale before investing in larger systems. In this way, the laboratory setup serves as a critical step from theoretical assessment to a documented, operational solution.
