This robust tool is intended for manufactures in various different sectors: aquaculture, food production, cosmetic companies, etc. Do not be fooled by its 285 L volume. Depending on your needs, it can be a full-scale production tool, an instrument for inoculum production or it can even be a part in the pilot phase of a project. In general terms, our SALT photobioreactors produce on average 1g/litre/day depending on the strain. For example, we compared a JUMBO and a 300 L tank, both of which containing a Tisochrysis culture; JUMBO produced fifteen times more than the 300 L tank at the same volume. Another advantage of high concentration is that you can produce more in less space (less than 10 m²) and less water is consumed.

This industrial photobioreactor guarantees the user a high level of reliability for their microalgae cultures. This system secures biomass production throughout the whole year. Cultures can be grown in semi-continuous, or continuous modes, by providing fresh medium.

In addition, we have developed protocols to ease its usage. Cleaning and disinfection are carried out in place (CIP) in order to save time without disassembling the growth chamber for easy maintenance.
