Blue Carbon Capture
Plant-Based Salt
Salicornia grows naturally along seashores worldwide. As a halophyte, it grows using seawater and accumulates salt in its biomass. Often referred to as sea beans or sea asparagus, Salicornia has long been recognized as a sustainable resource. However, due to its high salt content, it was traditionally too salty to be consumed directly. Phyto Corporation has pioneered an innovative process to isolate and separate salt from Salicornia, unlocking its full potential. The result is PhytoSalt, a plant-based salt, and PhytoMeal, a new food resource derived from Salicornia.
Beyond food innovation, Phyto Corporation is leading the way in nature-based blue carbon solutions. Salicornia is a powerful blue carbon plant that captures and stores a large amount of CO₂ in soil. By leveraging Phyto Corporation’s innovative patented technologies to cultivate Salicornia at scale, the company is developing a sustainable carbon capture system that contributes to climate change mitigation while also creating valuable plant-based products.
With 37 patents covering PhytoSalt, PhytoMeal, Salicornia cultivation, and
Salicornia-based blue carbon technologies, Phyto Corporation is advancing climate tech and nature-based carbon capture solutions to drive a sustainable future.

Salicornia Cultivation,
Seawater Agriculture

• Salicornia, called 'sea beans' or 'sea asparagus', is an edible halophyte plant that is a nutritious and functional food resource: https://earth.org/what-is-the-halophyte-plant/
• Salicornia is mass-cultivated by seawater agriculture, which is a climate-smart agriculture (CSA) that addresses the interlinked challenges of food security and climate change.
• Seawater agriculture is sustainable and eco-friendly for an age of food shortage resulting from water shortage; it does not require the use of any freshwater, fertilizers, or pesticides.
• Salicornia seawater agriculture can help solve global food shortages.
Also, "Blue Carbon" through seawater agriculture can mitigate global climate change and generate carbon credits: The "Blue Carbon" ecosystems can store up to 10 times more carbon than tropical rainforests: https://carboncredits.com/the-importance-of-blue-carbon-credits/
• Salicornia cultivation contributes to the increase of profit for local farmers.
