BioLargo to Host Ribbon-Cutting Event for Battery Pilot Manufacturing Facility

Westminster, CA – September 16, 2024 – BioLargo, Inc. (OTCQX:BLGO), a company that creates and commercializes sustainable technologies to solve tough environmental and cleantech challenges, announced that it will be hosting a ribbon-cutting ceremony to showcase its pilot-scale manufacturing facility for its CellinityTM next-generation battery energy storage technology. The invite-only event will take place on September 21, 2024, at BioLargo’s engineering headquarters and manufacturing facilities in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.

Cellinity is BioLargo’s next-generation battery platform designed to provide safe, environmentally conscious large-format long-duration battery energy storage for applications including grid-scale storage, renewable energy storage, charging stations for electric vehicles, and a variety of other commercial and industrial applications. The company will give a tour of the company’s manufacturing facility as well as presentations about how Cellinity batteries could improve and empower renewable energy storage and grid reliability in Tennessee and anywhere hoping to rely on renewable energy. The company will also present a new prototype scaled-up version of its Cellinity battery cells.

According to BioLargo President and CEO Dennis P. Calvert, “We are excited to share more information about Cellinity at this event, including showcasing the design of our larger Cellinity cell that will be used in commercial Cellinity battery systems. While much work is left to be done before the facility is producing finished, commercial-grade batteries, we’re excited to celebrate the impressive progress our engineers have made toward that goal.”

He continued, “We are also thrilled to host our potential international partners from Norway, where we hope to advance our business model to ‘sell factories, not batteries’. Much like North America, Northern Europe has made tremendous headway in developing renewable energy projects, but just like in America, safe and affordable battery energy storage systems are crucial to empowering the transition to green energy in Europe.

New Study Confirms Forever Chemicals Are Absorbed Through Human Skin


A new study on widespread “forever chemicals” by the University of Birmingham published in Environment International proved for the first time that a wide range of PFAS chemicals can be readily absorbed through human skin. Although the chemicals are already well known to enter the body through other means such as ingestion (eating and drinking) and inhalation, it has until recently been thought that PFAS are unable to breach the skin barrier. The new study, however, confirms that most of them can enter the body via this route.  

Dr. Oddny Ragnarsdóttir, the lead author of the study, stated: “The ability of these chemicals to be absorbed through skin has previously been dismissed because the molecules are ionized. The electrical charge that gives them the ability to repel water and stains was thought to also make them incapable of crossing the skin membrane”. The research instead shows that this theory does not always hold, and significant amounts of PFAS exposure can be a result of absorption through the skin.  

Among the thousands of different types of PFAS, the researchers chose 17 of the most widely used and studied, and those that directly corresponded to chemicals specifically regulated by the EU’s Drinking Water Directive. Of the 17 tested PFAS, 15 showed substantial absorption of at least 5% of the exposure dose. The study also showed that absorption correlated with carbon chain length, with longer chain molecules absorbing less than shorter chain molecules. This study provides much needed evidence of how skin contact and carbon chain length can affect exposure and raises several questions at a time when industry is shifting towards shorter chain PFAS believing them to be less toxic.

Chemical Makers Sue Over Rule to Rid Water of ‘Forever Chemicals’

Unsurprisingly, in the wake of new PFAS regulations, some in the industry are pushing back against the tough new treatment standards.

Great story in the New York Times on the topic: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/10/climate/pfas-forever-chemicals-lawsuit.html

On June 10, the New York Times reported a lawsuit by several chemical and manufacturing groups against the federal government over the per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS) “Forever Chemical” drinking water standards announced by the EPA two months prior. The groups claim that the new regulations exceed the government’s authority under the Safe Drinking Water Act by requiring municipal water systems across the country to filter out some of the synthetic chemicals to near non-detectable levels.  

While the EPA has said that the new standard will prevent serious illness and even death for thousands of people, these groups, along with some utilities, have brought challenges against the standard, questioning the science behind it and citing the potential cost of filtering out the chemicals. The American Water Works Association and the Association of Metropolitan Water Agencies believe the EPA have “significantly underestimated” the cost for treatment plants to meet the new standards, with the EPA estimating about $1.5 billion annually to comply and utilities claiming it could cost twice that amount.  

Ahead of the filing, Brenda Mallory, chair of the White House’s Council on Environmental Quality, in a public address defended the administration’s standards, stating: “Everyone should be able to turn on the tap and know that the glass of water they fill is safe to drink”. EPA officials also stated that the standard was based on the best available science and designed to be, “robust enough to withstand litigation”.

BioLargo Engineering Increases Ongoing Revenue with Another Air Force Contract

USAF work now amounts to over $100,000 in revenue per month.

Westminster, CA – June 20, 2024 – BioLargo, Inc. (OTCQX:BLGO), a company that creates and commercializes sustainable technologies to solve tough environmental and cleantech challenges, announced that its engineering subsidiary has been awarded a subcontract to provide air quality services to two Arizona U.S. Air Force bases for up to four years, with expected annual revenue of approximately $812,000.

The news comes on the heels of a similar recently announced contract award to serve three Air Force bases in New Mexico, which has a potential annual average revenue of $650,000. BioLargo’s work at the Arizona bases consists primarily of the air quality regulatory compliance portion of a Fence-to-Fence (F2F) support contract through prime contractor HLTLI Joint Venture, LLC, a joint venture between HL Environmental Services and TLI Solutions.

The four-year prime contract secures pricing for F2F services over the term of the contract but does not guarantee continuation of the contract over that duration. In the past, BioLargo’s engineers have continued providing services through the duration of the prime contract. In total, BioLargo Engineering’s work at Air Force bases now amounts to over $100,000 of revenue per month.

BioLargo Engineering, Science & Technologies President Randall Moore commented, “We are pleased and honored to continue providing vital engineering services to the United States Air Force and supporting their active mission and environmental compliance needs. These new contracts will provide for over $100,000 a month of ongoing fixed revenues while we continue to expand our abilities to support new opportunities.”

BioLargo Manufactures First Cellinity Battery Cells, a Safer Alternative to Lithium-ion

Westminster, CA – June 11, 2024 – BioLargo, Inc. (OTCQX:BLGO), a company that creates and commercializes sustainable technologies to solve tough environmental and cleantech challenges, announced that it had succeeded in manufacturing its first CellinityTM “Liquid Sodium” prototype battery cells. Visit www.BioLargoEnergy.com to learn more.













Cellinity is BioLargo’s next-generation battery platform designed to provide safe, environmentally conscious large-format long-duration battery energy storage for applications including grid-scale storage, renewable energy storage, charging stations for electric vehicles, and a variety of other commercial and industrial applications. Cellinity is not a lithium-ion battery – rather, it uses a unique chemistry involving molten salt electrolytes that imparts substantial benefits over lithium-ion chemistry. These newly manufactured Cellinity prototype cells will now be tested and validated for the energy storage and transfer performance claims that were generated in the technology’s early-stage research and development by its original inventors:

  • Far greater safety – no runaway fires, no risk of explosion;
  • Extremely long-lasting – no performance decrease over thousands of cycles;
  • No self-discharging, no out-gassing, and no parasitic load for cooling;
  • High energy density – more energy per unit of weight than lithium batteries;
  • All materials can be sourced within North America without the need for rare-earth elements.

“Successfully manufacturing our first battery cells is a pivotal moment in the journey of our battery technology,” said Dennis P. Calvert, President and CEO of BioLargo. “The testing and validation of these cells will allow us make claims about the capacity, charge/discharge rate, and other performance characteristics that we believe differentiate our batteries in the marketplace. After testing and validation, we will manufacture full-scale prototype Cellinity battery modules in 25- and 45-kilowatt hour capacities for further testing and validation.”

He continued, “In parallel to our ongoing development of the Cellinity battery, we’re exploring various financing options that ensure we get paid for and are in control of the engineering and construction of manufacturing facilities. Although initial discussions have taken place, we have no agreements in place. We believe a licensing and partnership model to be a better alternative to self-financed and self-operated manufacturing facilities competing with the likes of Tesla, and well suited for community-based manufacturing partners focused on underserved communities that are in special need of reliable renewable energy. Our target projects will add value to communities, develop workforces, stimulate economic development, promote grid stability and enable the development and expansion of micro-grids around the world. We will fundamentally enable and enhance the adoption of renewable energy.”

Mr. Calvert finished by saying, “The world needs a reliable, safe and eco-friendly alternative to lithium batteries, and we believe our Cellinity battery will meet these needs.”

BioLargo Generates Positive Operating Cash Flow on Record Quarterly Revenues for First Quarter of 2024

Westminster, CA – May 14, 2024 – BioLargo, Inc. (OTCQB:BLGO), a company that creates and commercializes sustainable technologies to solve tough environmental and cleantech challenges, announced that the company generated $481,000 operating cash flow with record quarterly revenues of $4,760,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The company filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q with full financial results, available at www.biolargo.com/sec-filings.  

BioLargo will hold an investor webcast on Tuesday May 14, 2024, at 2:30 pm Pacific Time, at the following link, open to the public: https://www.webcaster4.com/Webcast/Page/2448/50622   

BioLargo’s President and CEO Dennis P. Calvert discussed the results of the quarter, “We’ve had several years in a row of exceptional revenue growth, and as a result generated positive cashflow from operations this past quarter. Our goal, of course, is positive net income, and results like these bring us closer to achieving that goal.”

He continued, “BioLargo is executing on a winning formula: a team of highly qualified people dedicated to inventing, proving, and partnering to capitalize on a diversified portfolio of transformative technologies with the potential to create real change in the world.”

Financial highlights from the first quarter of 2024:

  • Companywide revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, grew to $4,760,000, a 9% increase over the fourth quarter of 2023 and a 28% increase over the first quarter of 2023.
  • The company generated positive cash from operating activities (cashflow) of $481,000, compared with negative $2,000 in the fourth quarter of 2023.
  • The company’s net stockholder’s equity increased from $4.2 million to $5.1 million.
  • Net loss was $775,000, a 32% decrease compared to the previous quarter and a 57% increase compared to the same period of 2023. Net loss included $623,000 in non-cash equity compensation expenses.

Business highlights from the first quarter of 2024:

  • Launched water equipment subsidiary to capitalize on opportunities in PFAS and water treatment.
  • Appointed key industry leaders to board of water equipment subsidiary: Sally Gutierrez, former U.S. EPA Senior Advisor for Water; Jeffrey Kightlinger, recognized water industry leader; and Larry Dick, former Vice Chairman of the board of Metropolitan Water District of Orange County.
  • The U.S. EPA finalized two important sets of regulations on PFAS that will influence the growth of the PFAS treatment market and may disproportionately favor our PFAS treatment technology because of its high efficacy against all types of PFAS and its low rate of production of solid PFAS-laden waste as a treatment byproduct.
  • Clyra is making substantial investments for scaled-up distribution of its Bioclynse line of products and contracting with third parties for FDA-compliant product manufacturing.

EPA Adds PFAS to CERCLA (Superfund) Law, Favoring Low-Waste Systems like BioLargo’s AEC

BioLargo’s PFAS treatment technology generates a fraction of the waste compared to carbon filtration

Westminster, CA – April 23, 2024 – BioLargo, Inc. (OTCQB:BLGO), a company that creates and commercializes sustainable technologies to solve tough environmental and cleantech challenges, today provided commentary on the importance of a final decision by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate two per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) chemicals as “hazardous substances” under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), also known as the Superfund law. BioLargo’s PFAS treatment solution, the Aqueous Electrostatic Concentrator, generates a small fraction of the volume of PFAS-laden waste that carbon filtration systems generate, thus reducing operational costs of waste handling, transport, and disposal.

In the EPA press release, EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan stated, “Designating these chemicals under our Superfund authority will allow EPA to address more contaminated sites, take earlier action, and expedite cleanups, all while ensuring polluters pay for the costs to clean up pollution threatening the health of communities.” These new regulations come on the heels of the EPA’s announcement two weeks ago setting PFAS drinking water limits as low as four parts per trillion.

This new EPA action also means that these PFAS chemicals will be listed as “hazardous materials” under the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, which will require materials containing these chemicals to be transported using special protocols.

Tonya Chandler, President of BioLargo Equipment Solutions & Technologies, Inc., which markets BioLargo’s PFAS treatment systems, commented, “We believe these and other upcoming regulations create a price advantage for our AEC system over competing sorbent technologies such as carbon filtration. With less waste generated, we can also offer clients waste handling all the way through to full destruction at our facility.”

These finalized CERCLA regulations are the most recent step by the EPA to limit exposure of Americans to PFAS. In addition to the recently announced federal drinking water standards for six PFAS chemicals, the agency also committed $9 billion in funding to help communities and water providers address contamination by PFAS and other emerging contaminants. This funding will assist communities and water providers to acquire PFAS monitoring and treatment systems to comply with new regulations.

Dennis P. Calvert, President and CEO of BioLargo, commented, “We’re pleased to see the U.S. government taking PFAS seriously and dedicating the billions of dollars in funding needed to protect municipal water supplies across the country.”

BioLargo PFAS Removal Technology Meets New US Drinking Water Standards

BioLargo’s Aqueous Electrostatic Concentrator generates a fraction of the waste product of competing technologies

Westminster, CA – April 15, 2024 – BioLargo, Inc. (OTCQB:BLGO), a company that creates and commercializes sustainable technologies to solve tough environmental and cleantech challenges, confirmed that its Aqueous Electrostatic Concentrator (AEC) can remove per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water to meet and surpass the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) drinking water limits for PFAS chemicals announced April 10, 2024. Additionally, the AEC produces far less PFAS-laden solid waste than carbon filtration or ion exchange, which should result in lower long-term costs for customers while reducing potential regulatory burden. BioLargo also offers advisory services, analytical testing, and education on PFAS science and regulations to water providers who need assistance complying with the new regulations. The newly finalized rules set national limits for PFAS in public drinking water to nearly undetectable levels, as low as 4 parts per trillion.

PFAS are an expansive group of man-made chemicals used for decades in the manufacture of countless goods, including non-stick cookware, fast-food containers, and firefighting foam. PFAS have been linked to numerous health problems including cancer and developmental issues, and are challenging to remove from water using traditional treatment techniques.

While traditional water filtration treatment technologies such as granular activated carbon, ion exchange, and membrane filtration may meet these new EPA standards on some PFAS species, they can fall short of achieving sufficient removal rates for short-chain PFAS molecules (such as the now-EPA-regulated GenX and PFHXS). They also have the significant downside of producing large volumes of PFAS-laden solid waste, which requires additional disposal costs and creates potential regulatory liability.

These new EPA regulations mark a shift in the evolving market for PFAS treatment technologies. Previously driven by a patchwork of state and local drinking water regulations, drinking water providers across the country will have to comply with the new federal standards. The EPA estimates compliance with the new rules will cost approximately $1.5 billion annually; spending in other industry segments is not included in that estimate (e.g., treatment of groundwater, wastewater, industrial wastewater, or landfill leachate).

“These long-awaited drinking water regulations are a big win for our technology,” commented Tonya Chandler, President of BioLargo Equipment Solutions & Technologies, BioLargo’s water equipment subsidiary. “Our AEC has an edge over the competition, as it can meet these new standards for all PFAS contaminants and generates far less PFAS-laden waste requiring disposal.”

In addition to these new standards, in February 2024 the EPA proposed changes to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act regulations by adding nine PFAS chemical compounds to its list of hazardous constituents in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 261 Appendix VIII.

“If these RCRA rules are finalized, costs associated with handling and disposing of PFAS-laden solid waste will likely become more expensive and difficult, giving our product a significant cost advantage over the competition,” said Ms. Chandler.
