The Arizona Center for Algae Technology and Innovation (AzCATI) serves as a national testbed for research, testing, and commercialization of algae-based products such as biofuels, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and other algae biomass co-products. AzCATI provides open test and evaluation facilities for the algae industry and research community. As a part of the LightWorks initiative, AzCATI is embedded within the Polytechnic School at Arizona State University.
Since its inception in 2010 with a grant from Science Foundation Arizona, AzCATI has grown its research portfolio to more than $35 million. AzCATI currently leads the following sponsored projects:
Department of Energy: Algae Testbed Public-Private Partnership
US Department of Agriculture: best management practices for algal crop protection
Salt River Project: microalgae carbon capture at the Coronado Generating Station
Arizona Board of Regents: multi-university collaboration to research the use of algae for wastewater remediation
Zivo Bioscience: microalgal bioactive molecule elucidation and biomass production
