Challenges
Before Sera, Gemusering struggled with inefficient CO₂ dosing, leading to periods of:
- Wasted CO₂ due to over-dosing or poor assimilation by plants, and
- Sub-optimal assimilation due to under-dosing.
Solution
We deployed advanced technical models to optimise CO₂ dosing, making use of:
- Assimilation Models: Designed to align CO₂ application with plant absorption rates, ensuring maximum uptake.
- Air Exchange Models: Developed to balance CO₂ concentration with airflow, reducing waste and maintaining optimal environmental conditions.
- Automated Adjustments: Integrated automated controls to dynamically adjust CO₂ dosing based on real-time environmental data.
- Performance Monitoring: Included continuous data tracking to ensure sustained efficiency and actionable insights.
Outcome
- Increased Production: Crop yields improved by up to 12%, thanks to optimised CO₂ absorption and plant growth.
- Higher Revenue: Net revenue grew by 10%, driven by better resource utilisation and higher-quality yields.
- Reduced Waste: CO₂ usage became significantly more efficient, cutting costs without compromising results.
Why it matters
Efficient CO₂ dosing isn’t just about saving resources—it’s about maximising the potential of every input. By aligning CO₂ application with plant needs and environmental conditions, this solution demonstrated how precision management can drive growth, profitability, and sustainability.
