1 Data information
|
This dataset stems from the BIOMASS project (https://biobs.jrc.ec.europa.eu/page/biomass-assessment-study-jrc). Its aim is to build a reliable database to characterize the algae sector and to support informed European policies on Blue Growth and Bioeconomy. In the framework of this project, a joint workshop between JRC, FAO and the COST Actions Phycomorph and EUalgae was organized, where the knowledge gaps and needs regarding algae biomass production were discussed. As a first step in this project information on the location of the production facilities, group of produced organism (macro/microalgae) and production method (Photobioreactors, Open ponds, Photobioreactors and open ponds, Photobioreactors and fermenters; land-based, off-shore and coastal aquaculture or harvesting) have been collected in the following countries: Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and UK. The list of European algae producers is based on the list provided by European Algae Biomass Association (EABA) and combined with JRC list
