Yara Algae Project















Project summary

Yara Sluiskil is aiming to achieve zero emission. Therefore, we are working on novel water treatment methods which are more sustainable compared to conventional methods. Hence, algae for water treatment is studied using a pilot-scale open pond system in which algae are grown, thereby removing nitrogen pollutants from the water. At this point of the research, automation and optimization of the pond are essential, thereby aiming for a full-scale set-up. Optimization of algae growth factors and the operation of two ponds in series for water polishing will be the main topics. Are you interested in working in a varied research team aiming to build the first full-scale algae water treatment plant in the Netherlands? Then send your resume and motivational letter to Jennifer Kwaijtaal: Jennifer.Kwaijtaal@yara.com
