I extract bioactives from seaweed, but it’s Asparagopsis Taxiformis. What is your target compound?

Edit: I see that potassium is the target. What is your current solvent/method of extraction. We run into a lot of polysaccharide ‘gums’ as well. Filtration can be tricky but not impossible.

I just watched a video on sea weed farming as cattle feed which reduces methane production probably make it full cycle if you fertilize with the poop

some things just stick together, others just wash away. if they don’t react well together, they just shouldn’t be mixed or introduced into the same environment

Alginic acid with higher levels of vitamin c and e than your typical seaweed meal
