Maîn CEA is a deep-tech SME based in Türkiye, specializing in eco-industrial food production and microalgae biotechnology . We focus on engineering Zero-Waste soilless agriculture systems that efficiently upcycle nutrient-dense effluents into high-value, sustainable bioproducts.
As a specialized technical partner, we provide active, near-operational validation capabilities. We operate a dedicated pilot production facility designed to test, optimize, and validate bioremediation and valorization of agricultural side streams while producing and testing of agricultural biologicals and alternative feeds. We bring hands-on experience in scaling microalgae cultivation, processing raw biomass, and demonstrating the economic and environmental viability of circular farming loops.

Maîn CEA operates a TRL 6-7 pilot production facility dedicated to engineering Zero-Waste soilless agriculture systems. We are seeking to join consortiums as a specialized technical partner to provide active, near-operational validation for the bioremediation and valorization of agricultural side streams. Depending on the consortium’s target topic, our collaboration capabilities include:
For Topic 1.3.1-2026 (On-site transformation): We offer infrastructure to test and validate the rapid, decentralized transformation of highly perishable agricultural effluents and raw microalgal biomass. We provide hands-on expertise in stabilizing these fragile biological resources directly at the point of production, converting them into high-value, microalgae-based agricultural biologicals before biological degradation occurs.
For Topic 1.2.1-2026 (Alternative feeds): We provide near-operational prototyping for circular aquaculture and alternative animal feeds. Our facility is equipped to optimize the capture of nutrient-dense agricultural waste streams and validate their continuous transformation into scalable, safe, microalgal-derived protein substitutes.
For Topic 2.1.1-2026 (Non-perennial watercourses): We serve as a technical provider of nature-based, agro-ecological interventions. We can deploy and validate specific microalgae-based agricultural biologicals within target catchments to enhance soil water retention, stabilize local ecology, and mitigate agricultural runoff into temporary Mediterranean streams.
