Microalgae

What if the plants

you can’t see were

removing carbon

from the air?

Most people think trees are the main absorbers of carbon,

but in reality, over 50%

of the Earth’s oxygen is produced by microalgae.

Microalgae are among the most efficient organisms on Earth at absorbing carbon per unit area.

Through photosynthesis, they biologically remove CO₂, release oxygen,

and create valuable bio-resources.

At FORNATURES, we harness the power of microalgae to bring forests

into our spaces—developing

automated cultivation technology, environmental control systems,

and sustainable harvesting and processing solutions.

ABOUT MICROALGAE

Shall We Learn About

Microalgae?

By harnessing microalgae, we can increase oxygen levels

in the air while reducing carbon concentrations.

The Smallest Plant,

The Biggest Impact.

Oxygen Production

Through photosynthesis, microalgae capture carbon dioxide and release oxygen.

High Carbon Storage Capacity

They store more than 2,000 times

the carbon

of ordinary plants.

Alkalinization

They can purify bacteria and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Versatile Applications

Usable in food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, fuels,

and more.

The Origin of Life : Microalgae

When we think about reducing carbon, we often picture trees.

But more than half of the Earth’s oxygen actually comes from tiny,

unseen organisms—microalgae.

Microalgae thrive in oceans, rivers, and soil, and are the most efficient organisms on Earth

at photosynthesis and CO₂ absorption

per unit area.

QUESTION

What Are Microalgae?

Microalgae are among the earliest life forms on Earth, first appearing in the oceans about 3 billion years ago.

These tiny, single-celled organisms contain chlorophyll, reproduce through division,

and—like plants—use photosynthesis to capture

carbon dioxide from the air and release oxygen.

In fact, microalgae are responsible for producing about 55% of the oxygen on Earth, and they store nearly twice their weight in carbon.

By harnessing microalgae, we can raise oxygen levels in the air while reducing carbon concentrations.

Why We Chose This Path

At FORNATURES, we focused on the highly efficient Spirulina species. With its rapid growth rate

and exceptional photosynthetic efficiency, it adapts well to indoor cultivation environments.

Building on this foundation, we developed technology that integrates sensor-based systems, automated cultivation devices,

and light-control solutions—enabling safe and efficient microalgae cultivation in both indoor and outdoor urban spaces.

INFINITY

Limitless Applications

Microalgae provide products that are highly beneficial to human nutrition.

Rich in proteins, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, carotenoids, and other essential nutrients, microalgae are promoted worldwide not only as one of the most nutritious protein sources in nature but also as a complete nutritional supplement.

They are already sold as dietary products and used by chefs around the world as a special ingredient.

Microalgae can also be used as a natural dye.

For example, phycocyanin is a blue protein pigment derived from certain types of microalgae. This natural pigment—used as a food coloring—also carries therapeutic properties such as antioxidant,

anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiviral effects.

Beyond food, microalgae are expanding into industries including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, bio-feed, and bio-materials.

The Change

Microalgae Creates

CO₂ Removal : Absorbs up to 2,000 times more carbon than ordinary trees

Oxygen Production : Continuously generates oxygen during growth

Air Quality Improvement : Absorbs VOCs, fine dust,

and other harmful substances

Biomass Production : Creates resources usable in functional materials,

feed, and biofuels

We Plant Forests in Spaces

The microalgae used in HEALIM are not just organisms that purify air—they embody

the ecological role of a forest within urban spaces.

At FORNATURES, we bring these invisible forests into your environment through microalgae.

They help us respond to the climate crisis, clean the air we breathe, and transform our spaces into

sustainable ecosystems for the future.

Sustainability

Forest Creation Effect

Equivalent to 700㎡

a soccer field)

Tree Planting Effect

Equivalent to

152 pine trees,

30 years old

Flight Offset

Equivalent to 1.2 round-trip flights

between Seoul

and New York

EV Driving Offset

Equivalent to about 5,000 km

of electric vehicle driving

What if your space could help

heal the Earth?

Industrial facilities and buildings are major sources of carbon emissions,

yet practical technologies

for reducing carbon indoors are almost nonexistent.

HEALIM automates biological carbon capture technology, directly removing carbon from the air,

generating oxygen,

and delivering reliable

environmental data—all in a new type of device designed

for sustainable spaces.

Way Out

A Sustainable Solution Inspired by Nature

Since the dawn of life on Earth, microalgae have absorbed carbon and released oxygen through natural cycles, sustaining ecosystems as a vital life form. These unique properties make microalgae a promising answer to today’s urgent challenges—especially reducing carbon emissions and addressing energy issues—positioning them as a truly sustainable solution for the future.

Carbon Neutral

The Core of Carbon Neutrality and Resource Circulation

Through photosynthesis, microalgae absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it for their own growth. This naturally contributes to carbon neutrality and opens the door to efficiently treating CO₂ emissions from industrial processes. In addition, by-products from

microalgae cultivation can be recycled into bioenergy, fertilizers, feed, and other applications—further supporting resource circulation.

Energy

Driving Sustainable Energy for the Future

Microalgae offer a renewable path to clean energy by transforming sunlight and carbon dioxide into valuable bioenergy resources. Their cultivation produces biomass that can be converted into biodiesel, bioethanol, and other green fuels, reducing reliance on fossil energy. Unlike conventional crops, microalgae grow rapidly without competing for arable land, and they can be cultivated using wastewater or saline water, making them highly efficient.

Efficiency

Efficient Use of Water and Land Resources

Microalgae achieve high productivity while using relatively little water and land. In particular, during wastewater treatment, they can remove pollutants while still serving as a valuable resource—helping restore ecosystems and improve water management. This efficiency makes microalgae a highly sustainable solution in a world facing growing populations and increasing resource scarcity.

Vision

The Vision of FORNATURES and Microalgae

Data Analysis & Reporting

To explain natural variability and establish statistical significance, we use appropriate methods such as ANOVA to analyze collected data.

This allows us to verify how microalgae cultivation impacts carbon reduction and air quality improvement. Key performance indicators

such as CO₂ absorption rates and biomass productivity are calculated, analyzed, and systematized into comprehensive reports.

These reports serve as evidence of service effectiveness and can be shared with stakeholders and regulatory bodies,

as well as used for VCM certification.
