Microalgae reactors aren't witchcraft!
The ADS Grenzfriedensbund e.V. makes the principle of water purification by microalgae tangible and understandable.
From summer 2025, ADS educators will be trialling pilot courses with school classes on
a) Algae for water purification,
b) Algae as cosmetics,
c) algae as food.
An algae bioreactor will be installed at a school camp on the Schlei to familiarise pupils with the practical use of microalgae and demonstrate the wide range of applications. The project is scientifically supported by partners from the Blue Bioeconomy and the Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel. Teachers for algae, biotechnology and the blue bioeconomy are also being trained, with the aim of obtaining certification from the IQSH.
A and B promotes sustainability education and specialist training. It raises awareness of the blue bioeconomy among schoolchildren and the public and supports the relief of over-fertilised waters such as the Schlei.
