Algae Bioreactors as public art
Thanks to Solar Feeds we learn that Los Angeles and Perth are about to find the sweet spot between public art and alternative energy.
The outer shells of the Photobioreactors are fiber-composite monocoque construction, pleated for stiffness. The Photobioreactors contain colonies of algae that require CO2 and light at the front end and generate hydrogen or biofuel at the other end. The system is based on the technology developed by OriginOil which that allows for continued operation in shade and also in complete darkness through the use of a helix of lights inside each algae coil.
