What is Algora Project?
We deploy AI-powered robots to harvest invasive algae for pharmaceuticals while building seaweed farms that capture CO₂ and reduce ocean eutrophication.
-
Harvesting invasive algae types
Harvesting invasive algae species (Ulvophyceae), which reduce biodiversity, can poison the ecosystem and cause economic damage.
-
Application of submersible robots
Automated, sensor-capable submersible robots that use artificial intelligence to identify and collect invasive algae types.
-
Use in the pharmaceutical industry
Pharmaceutical use of collected algae types (Chlorophyta). The secondary metabolites they contain have useful anticancer properties.
-
Creating new algae colonies
Planting new beneficial algae cultures (Rhodophyta; Chondrus crispus) to reduce eutrophication. These types provide habitat, oxygen and food.
-
Diving and algae planting
The creation of underwater algae colonies is carried out by our volunteer diving team. If you are interested in the opportunity - join us!
-
Conservation of marine life
Algae not only improve water quality, but also remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Thus, they are essential for the preservation of the ocean ecosystem.
