Engineer puts up high-tech Spirulina farm
Excerpt
All the requirements that are needed to succeed in growing the alga have been studied by Pol, and so successful is he that even the researchers from UP Los Baños and La Salle University, have admired his success in producing spirulina. In fact, Dr. Joel Cuello, an expert in growing algae for large scale production from the University of Arizona’s Department of Agriculture and Biosystems Engineering, has been impressed by the Aztec Spirulina Farm. Dr. Cuello said that the production area is very hygienic and that the spirulina produced is very pure. It is unlike in other countries where spirulina is grown in open ponds outdoors. He considers Astec’s operation as really green and sustainable.
