Project Description:
This project is based on the design of a 20L photo-reactor for the production of cyanobacteria. The project sponsor is currently using cyanobacteria to produce pharmaceutical APIs and would like a reactor with additional features. Preliminary goals for the reactor include improved light exposure, improved cyanobacteria concentration, and a semi-portable design.
