photobioreactor

A photobioreactor is a controlled environment designed to grow and cultivate photosynthetic microorganisms, such as algae, using light, nutrients, and carbon dioxide. It resembles a specialized, transparent container or system that maximizes exposure to light, enabling efficient photosynthesis. These systems are used in various applications, including biofuel production, wastewater treatment, and the generation of valuable bioproducts. By precisely managing environmental factors, photobioreactors enhance microorganism growth, making the process scalable and sustainable for industrial purposes while minimizing land and resource use.
