About
Arrhenius AG is a Swiss HSLU (Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts) spin-off founded in 2023 that grows microalgae in photobioreactors and geologically stores the resulting biomass to generate carbon removal credits. The company is pursuing a pilot plant in Portugal in partnership with Algae for Future SA (A4F) at sites in Lisbon and Matacães, and is developing a parallel AlgaeCycle wastewater-to-biochar project in Lucerne.
