Project Description:
Our project, assigned by the hydroponics company Local Bounti, was the development of a robust model for hourly usage of supplemental carbon dioxide for indoor crops, as well as an investigation into potential sources of supplemental carbon dioxide. The goal, ultimately, will be to determine how much carbon dioxide will be needed to produce healthy crops while minimizing waste.
