Automated Algae Scale-Up in Photobioreactors

Industrial Plankton photobioreactors automate scale-up using semi-continuous and continuous cycles for optimized production. For semi-continuous, PBRs measure density and add media when reached, enabling exponential growth. In continuous cycles, media is constantly added; setting a 5-20L/hour flow rate can bring the density to full in 3-5 days.
