Trade Show AlgaEurope 2025

Algoliner is a turnkey supplier for photobioreactors in any dimensions. Their lab reactors have volumes between 1 litre and 1,000 litres while their large scale have no limits.

With their unique production method, they produce the pipes for the large-scale reactors on site in any required length. Hence no packaging, transport and re-assembly with joints is necessary.

Algoliner is the only producer of photobioreactors with aseptically flanges.

The required raw material for our reactors is only 40 % of those of common systems, while the pipes can be easily recycled by 100%

Algoliner realized in the meantime many reactors in different sizes and concepts.

BrightWave specializes in the design and sale of indoor, industrial scale PBRs. They make it easy to co-locate feedstock production with manufacturing, and help organizations develop more sustainable and streamlined supply chains.

BrightWave’s patented PBRs are powered by in-water grow lights that scale algae cultivation vertically and maximize production on the smallest footprint. And they self-clean, increasing production further by eliminating down time.  

Their PBRs are already making waves in sectors like food and feed, pharma and nutraceuticals, biomaterials and fuels. They deliver customized solutions and substantial climate impacts to multiple industries, part of their mission to drive global adoption of algae as the world’s most versatile feedstock.

DLG Benelux is organiser of PotatoEurope in The Netherlands, the International Seaweed Conference Seagriculture EU, Seagriculture USA and  the AlgaEurope Conference, which is being organized in cooperation with the European Algae Biomass Association (EABA).

The general objective of the European Algae Biomass Association (EABA) is to promote mutual interchange and cooperation in the field of biomass production and use, including biofuel uses and all other utilisations. It aims at creating, developing, and maintaining solidarity and links between its Members and at defending their interests at the European and international levels. Its main target is to act as a catalyst for fostering synergies among scientists, industrialists, and decision-makers in order to promote the development of research, technology, and industrial capacities in the field of Algae.

In this perspective EABA intends to constitute a basis for:

- Establishing a permanent liaison with EU and EU Member States’ Institutions.

- Defining and expressing a common position on EU issues (legislation, product specifications, trade and sustainability standards, etc.), acting as a technology-neutral platform.

- Representing the European biomass industry and the scientific community at the international level.

- Spreading scientific information and knowledge about biomass and biofuels production.

- Making research and industry alive in public debate.

- Promoting investment and financial support in the field of Algae.

- Helping the structuring and planning of research and industrial development on Algae.

- Fostering scientific freedom as well as responsibility.

- Studying all economic and technical problems which may impact the sector in the European Union and related countries and studying all the direct and indirect environmental, social and economic effects of production and use.

- Breaking scientific boundaries on Algae.

- Promoting the exchange of scientific information and the publication of sound articles.

-Below is a complete summary detailing the draft scope, objectives, and the main draft structure of the EABA.
