We have started aAquaculture of phytoplankton, zooplankton and microanimals. However, microalgae is our main focus.
In our current project, both sea water and brackish water algae species chlorella vulgaris and sea water specie spriluna platensis are targetted. Following facts were considered:
-
Chlorella Vulgaris and Spriluna Platensis as sea water phytoplankton.
-
Chlorella Vulgaris as sweet water phytoplankton.
-
Rotifer as sea water zooplankton.
-
Paramecium as sweet water zooplankton.
-
Artemia Salina as sea water micro-animal.
-
Daphnia Magna as sweet water micro-animal.
-
Tilapia is produced in self sustained closed super intensive aquaculture system.
-
Yeast is produced in self sustained closed super intensive aquaculture system.
Micro-animals are used to feed grown up fishes and fingerlings, zooplanktons are used to feed to fish fries, some filter feeder fishes and zooplanktons are fed on phytoplankton.
Complete self sustaining food chain obtained based on sun light only.
Pilot studies are done on closed loop life support systems are developed.
ALGEA based plant production preferred because algae use solar energy and carbon dioxide to produce proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Additionally, they only need organic wastes. Ideal mixture can be obtained from any type of animal manures.
Because of its high protein and vitamin content and ability of mass production United Nations General Assembly declared use of Spiriluna to combat hunger and malnutrition to help sustainable development.
In our business strategy, we are planning to build mega farms with open-race ponds for algae productions with following partnership:
-
Governments will provide land and infrastructure, in return will get biodiesel fuel
-
Investors will provide finance for building processing unit and technology deployment, in return will get profit
-
Technology developer aquafarming experts will implement project and process grown algae to convert final products.
Harvest Everyday Farming
Algae cultivation has a number of advantages over traditional agriculture: High yield: With around 60 percent protein content, algae’s rapid growth means it yields 20 times more protein per unit area than soybeans, 40 times more than corn, and over 200 times more than beef. Algae production does not require fertile land and can actually benefit from saline conditions instead of fresh water.
