Neptune Industries, Inc. Launches a Closed Containment Aquaculture System, The Aqua-Sphere
Neptune Industries has installed the first of its patent-pending Aqua-Sphere seafood production systems at its new site in Florida City, Florida.
Mr. Ernest Papadoyianis, President, stated, "Following years of extensive research, Aqua-Sphere is in the final stages of development before market introduction.
Aqua-Sphere will provide the farmed seafood industry with an eco-friendly production system that provides the ability to raise countless varieties of seafood virtually anywhere in the world. We look forward to providing disruptive technology to meet the stringent production requirements for U.S. and global Organic Standards. Aqua-Sphere utilizes alternative energy sources to provide system power so it can be productive in remote areas which previously could not be utilized. The global fish farming industry has been searching for a safer, more reliable and economical system, it is now available in Aqua-Sphere."
Based in Boca Raton, Florida, Neptune Industries, Inc. has developed a scalable, modular aquaculture technology called Aqua-Sphere and Aqua-Cell that successfully address the environmental concerns of most aquaculture operations by controlling and recycling all waste products, while insuring the production of the highest quality fish at an affordable price. The company currently operates the Blue Heron Aqua Farms in Florida City, FL and is a leading producer of hybrid striped bass, which it markets internationally as Everglades Striped Bass.
The company's current production at its Blue Heron farm, and future production with Aqua-Sphere System technology are intended to target the organic market as soon as organic certification of farm-raised seafood becomes available. The Company is also in development of an advanced dietary nutritional component called Ento-Protein. Ento-Protein is a high quality sustainable protein derived from insects, and is intended to be a replacement for the scarce fish meal now used in fish and animal diets.
