Industrial Plankton attended the 2017 Algae Biomass Summit in Salt Lake City, Utah. The ABS is the worlds largest algae event, organized by the Algae Biomass Organization.

Robert Roulston, CEO of Industrial Plankton attended the conference with our 1250L Algae Photobioreactor on display. Is you are looking for where to buy algae photobioreactors, this conference is the place to be!

Carbon capture, waste-water, and animal feed were hot topics at this year’s conference.
