Photobioreactors for culturing microalgae as live feed, from laboratory columns through to production-scale tubular arrays.
| Range | Culture volume | Light path / illumination | Vessel configuration and footprint | Suited species and typical use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Phyco-Bubble | 3 – 25 L, incremental sizes. Other sizes available on request | LED or Gro-Lux back lighting, tailored to specific photosynthetic requirements. Light path and illuminated surface area not published by supplier | Aerated column in Schott borosilicate glass, with manifolds and connectors in PVC or aluminium. Inlet, outlet and sensor ports added to suit. Bench top unit — overall dimensions not published | Bench and laboratory scale culture of marine and freshwater microalgae |
| Phyco-Pyxis | 1000 – 4000 L, incremental sizes. Other sizes available on request | Internally illuminated, LED as the primary light source, optimised to provide the maximum level of PAR. PAR value, light path and illuminated surface area not published by supplier | Closed, fixed volume GRP vessel with removable top for maintenance and cleaning, top overflow for harvesting and valved bottom outlet for draining down. Mixed by aspirated air with CO2 injection under pH control. Floor footprint not published | Production scale high density monoculture of marine and freshwater algae |
| Phyco-Flow | Not published by supplier — array sized to the production requirement and easily expanded | Tubular photostage with the patented tube self cleaning mechanism. Light path and illuminated surface area not published by supplier | Closed, automatically controlled tubular system, expandable in modules to meet increased production | High density monoculture at 5 to 10 times conventional density. Main species: Nanno, tetra, chlorella, scenedesmus, chaetoceros, Isochrysis, neochlorus, pavlova, haema and benthic diatoms |
| Ancillaries | Influent disinfection 2500 – 3000 L/h per system. Nutrient dispensers 10 – 3000 L/h | — | Varicon Aqua in line chemical disinfection or UV, or coupled to an external disinfection system. Proportional in line nutrient dispensers. One disinfection system can serve multiple reactors | Influent treatment and nutrient dosing, supplied with the Phyco-Pyxis |
