Mark Edwards and Robert Henrikson presented International Algae Competition at a special session at the Algae Biomass Summit in Denver CO, Sept. 24-27, 2012. This is the world's largest algae biomass conference with 800 professionals.
Robert Henrikson writes a 6 part series in AlgaeIndustryMagazine.com. Parallel to very large algae production systems envisioned by well-funded algae ventures, is the emerging interest in smaller, scalable algae farms and business models. Evolving from projects in developing world villages, algaepreneurs in France have been growing spirulina algae in small outdoor greenhouses. Along with outdoor pond systems, much algae R&D is focusing on bioreactors designed to grow more challenging algae under more controlled conditions. Automated smart technology combined with modular growing systems may soon make it feasible to successfully deploy algae microfarms and photobioreactors anywhere in the world.
