==========================================

Question 7

Why is Corbion’s algae production facility located in Brazil?

1 / 1 point

There are tax incentives in Brazil for algae production.

The facility is co-located next to a sugar cane mill which Corbion uses for the carbon source.

This is where Corbion is based.

Brazil gets more sunny days per year than most places.

==========================================

Question 8

Corbion grows algae phototrophically.

1 / 1 point

True

False

Corbion uses sugar cane as the carbon source and they use fermentation tanks to grow their algae.

==========================================

Question 9

Corbion’s Algae Prime product is used to cut out the need for fishing smaller fish feed in aquaculture.

1 / 1 point

True

False

Rather than omega-3 fatty acids going through the food chain from algae, to smaller fish, to farmed fish, Algae Prime is fed directly to farmed fish to give them omega-3 fatty acids for human consumption.
