Here is our finished reactor. It’s important to point out that this type of an array can be scaled up to any number of cells. I ended up gifting this little reactor to a friend of mine that has been promoting algae tech for some time. She will put it to good use!
Here is the diagram that we use to illustrate the way these reactors work. If you choose to run a separate strain of algae in each tube you will need to change the plumbing to prevent cross contamination.
