In Spring 2010, Algasol Renewables moved its biomass producing photobioreactors from the lab to outside ponds and commenced scaling-up its proprietary technology to semi-industrial sub-unit size.
In June, biomass production commenced in two Alga4 PBR sub-units (5 m2 sub-units) equal to an 11x scale-up of the technology compared to the sub-unit size used in the lab.
Outdoor biomass production with outstanding results.
Based on standard micro algae strains, Algasol Renewables has achieved an average productivity in June to August of 50-70 grams per m2 per day and a biomass concentration of up to 12 grams per liter. These results are outstanding and a significant milestone in the commercialization of its proprietary floating PBR technology, and:
• Confirms the scalability of the technology, including in relation to securing a sufficient gas transfer to support the algae growth.
• Demonstrates that biofouling (commonly observed in PBRs) is not a problem due to the continuous and random stirring of the algae culture.
• Provides able evidence that Algasol Renewables' floating PBR technology is the most promising industry platform for low-cost micro algae biomass production.
Algasol Renewables' objective is to have the world's largest and most cost-efficient algae photobioreactor pilot plant.
