Grow Your Vision ... Faster! 
The AlgaTube™️ product line is a new kind of tubing designed specifically for tPBRs. It is proven to boost the photosynthetic productivity of spirulina by 41% compared to standard round tubes.  Gal et al. (2023)                                                                   














We offer a small version of the product line for education and a large version for industry.

... with the AlgaTube Product Line
The corrugated wall shape of the AlgaTube™️ increases the photon surface area (PSA) by more than 2x relative to a comparable, cylindrical tube. This improves photon distribution and the photosynthetic productivity of a tubular photobioreactor.  It also reduces water usage. The AlgaTube™️ is made of clear virgin acrylic. Adapters, connectors, u-turns, and in-line probe holders are custom made to fit precisely with the special shape of the AlgaTube™️.
