The Basic Algae Bio Reactor
So I wanted to put together a simple example of a bio reactor using simple off the shelf parts and aquarium parts available from nearly any big chain store to make a simple reactor on the cheap. This is the most basic algae reactor design overall and while I used …
The Coil BioReactor V1
For many people wanting to experiment with algae or even those who are serious about mass production there are usually problems with space or seasonal restrictions they have to work with. This reactor design is an attempt to produce a reactor that will run indoors year around safely with a …
Modular Photo Bio Reactor Cell Design
Most large reactor arrays have one failing in that if any part of the reactor is damaged it can compromise the entire reactor. Imagine 500 gallons of algae water flowing where ever it wants to go and you get the idea… With this in mind this system is modular system …
Algae Necklace
The stuff you will need 1- Necklace Vial – These are available in almost any craft store. One necklace Cord – This cord is realy nice, its leather and already complete. Algae – For our algae we opted to use a salt water algae that is very …
The Meggio Reactor Design
Our algae photo-bioreactor framework is 43 ¾” tall x 17 ½” wide x 2 ½” deep. It consists of 5 vertical 1 inch tubes. We built this unit for a 2 ½” deep window sill. It is pictured here sitting on a light box. A bit about this window unit …
Arduino Strobe Algae
Overview: For some time I have been experimenting with algae and it has become a bit of a passion of mine. Enough of a passion in fact that I have built a sister site to InventGeek.com called AlgaeGeek.com where I have more of a focus on reactor designs that I …
Modular Algae Photo Reactor V.2
This project is the second version of the basic photo bio reactor array that I started with. While it may look similar to the previous version is dramatically different overall. This design has many improvements that make it far more sustainable and practical for long-term use. I really focused on …
DIY Algae Photo Bio Reactor
I have wanted to do this a project for a long time and with earth day this year it kinda just fit timing wise. Its really a simple and quick build, yet getting the level up in bio-friendly-geek makes this all the more fun. Now I admit that I have …
