Installation of 1500L Tubular Photobioreactor (PBR) in Bangi

Fully automated PBR by Algae Living

Project Overview

The Tubular PBR focused is a high-efficiency, closed-loop photobioreactor designed to optimize algae growth under controlled conditions. Unlike open pond systems, tubular PBRs provide superior contamination control, higher biomass yields and precise regulation of light, temperature and nutrients.

  • System Specifications: Modular tubular design with automated monitoring for pH, Temperature, dissolved oxygen and CO₂ levels.
  • Capacity: Scalable up to 1000L with 500L buffer tank for pilot-scale production
  • Key Benefits:
    • Increased productivity by up to 300% compared to traditional methods
    • Reduced water usage and minimal environmental footprint
    • Integration with renewable energy sources for carbon-neutral operations

Installation Highlights

The project timeline spanned 5 days involving:

  1. Site Preparation: Foundation work and utility integrations
  2. Assembly: Erection of glass or polymer tubes in a looped configuration
  3. Commissioning: Full operational handover with training for customer
