In January the EnerGaia Bangladesh team set up tanks on the rooftop of Sher-e-Bangla University in Dhaka. In February they held a media event for the press to celebrate the start up of the first spirulina production tanks.
In March, Ezra went from HQ to help our Bangladesh team finish setting up our main spirulina lab, which is also at the same university in Dhaka so that they can maintain a master culture room in Bangladesh and also conduct experiments on nutrient media optimization.
The lab and farm are also serving as valuable learning facilities for several of the university’s microbiology students.
