Our PBRs Vs Massive Scale Production
Q&A: How do Industrial Plankton PBRs compare to large-scale production?
How do Industrial Plankton
photobioreactors compare to the production of thousands of litres of algae grown in mass-scale?
Here’s what you need to know: Obviously, by volume it doesn’t really compare. A single PBR 1250 L is 1.25 tons. The average continuous daily production from a single PBR is between 300 to 400 litres per day.
How it can help is whether you need 10, 15, or even 20 tonnes of algae per day—of a single strain or multiple strains—our Industrial Plankton bioreactors can be used to inoculate these mass-scale systems.
We’d be happy to help you work through that math to figure out which PBRs are best for your inoculum feedstock. Send us a message! For more information about us: https://industrialplankton.com
