NovoNutrients‘ mission is to solve two problems simultaneously: creating sustainable protein to feed a growing population, and combating climate change through innovation. The proprietary microbes grow quickly in a carbonated water solution, using minimal water and no arable land. In some places, they’ll be paid to take CO2. The bioreactor designs optimal protein production for […]
