There have been 'superfoods' that can save mankind's hunger: All thanks to this tiny plant!

The world population is constantly increasing. It is estimated that people will need 50-70% more food by 2050. So where do we go to find more of this huge amount of food in just 30 years?

Remember in the past: Our life, the beginning of every food on earth is photosynthesis. Sunlight combines with CO2 and water in plants to form oxygen and glucose. This sugar is found in fruits, roots and vegetables.

All nutrients originate from photosynthesis.

" So just to exploit the benefits of photosynthesis in trees can solve our planet's food crisis. " - That is the claim that the company Arborea proved with BioSolar Leaf technology .

It looks like a solar cell, but actually this technology is used to produce and develop hundreds of different types of micro-organisms to create different components.

There are hundreds of types of microalgae, with different nutrients, flavors and colors. Although they have not yet appeared on the menu, they are full of vitamins, antioxidants and minerals rich in comparison with normal foods.

Microalgae can nourish trillions of animals on the planet while consuming very little energy, because they can produce a lot of protein with only a small area.

They are also the fastest growing photosynthetic organisms on the planet, so they can be cultivated very quickly and very effectively.

Microalgae after being cultured are separated and dried to form into pieces or powder. These finished products are passed on to food production plants to be processed into the foods they want.

Not only does it contain lots of nutrients, these foods are also a perfect alternative to regular foods.

Arborea's biotechnology journey

Arborea's start-up company was founded by former member Julian Melchiorri, who owned two master's degrees in "Innovative Design Engineering " at courses jointly managed by Imperial College London and Royal College of Art.

The "BioSolar Leaf" technology not only produces the protein as mentioned above, but is also the world's leading technology to clean the air through photosynthesis, helping to eliminate greenhouse gases and oxygen.

In 2017, Julian's "Bionic Chandelier" - a living structure that purifies indoor air with microalgae, has made a big buzz in the world science community.

Another invention of the company is "air photosynthetic biological leaves", including "floating" chloroplasts in a matrix made of silk protein. Like leaves, they need only light and a small amount of water to produce oxygen. This invention was accepted by the British Royal Family, and the experiment applied to create space for space travelers.
