Labor Required to Operate PBR

Great question! The automation takes away much of the labour of growing algae compared to traditional methods. Where labor is required is in generating the clean inoculum and every few months when you decide to clean the bioreactor.

Experience significantly reduced labor costs with our automated bioreactors. Designed for seamless operation, our bioreactors scale, harvest, and clean themselves within a single unit controlled via an intuitive touchscreen.

Minimal Upfront Investment: Focus on generating a clean inoculum, and the PBR will handle the rest of the scale-up process.

Reduced Maintenance: Our innovative CIP (Clean-In-Place) system ensures thorough cleaning and sterilization, typically required only every 3-4 months. This translates to minimal maintenance requirements and optimized operational efficiency.

Start with a clean Inoculum, scaling with media and your desired setpoint for pH and temperature to ensure optimal growth conditions. Harvest continuously or in batch culture, then clean to repeat the process.
