Description

Build your own Photobioreactor to grow pure algae species and tap into the rapidly growing Algae Industry. Algae is a valuable feedstock across industries, rich in Amino acids, Proteins, Lipids, Carbohydrates, Anti-oxidants, and other products. This book describes how to build a Photobioreactor to grow algae, enabling researchers, developers, and companies to cultivate Algal monocultures with purity and minimal cost. With a Photobioreactor, you can control photosynthesis and grow up to four different Algal taxa using a 4-vessel Algae grow kit rated at 80 Liter total capacity. This system includes optical, mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and biological components, allowing for complete control over the growth process. Algae species grown with a PBR algae grow kit can produce valuable amino-acids, proteins, carbohydrates, and essential oils, consuming water-borne pollution for nutrients.
