Plankton is known as an amazing natural being. It can multiply it’’s own biomass by 40 in 24 hours, and is an important resource in cosmetics and food industry. By the way it produces oxygen and hydrogen thus fresh air and energy. Why not implement this natural system in housing ?
During my Pre-degree I did an study how to integrate Plankton Reactors into facades or industrial plants to face 21 century problems in energy production. Beside the use of plankton for cosmetics or animal feed it should be seen it’’s an serious possibility to produce human food out of it.
