A vertical alveolar panel (VAP) for outdoor mass cultivation of microalgae and cyanobacteria
TL;DR: A vertical alveolar panel (VAP) for microalgal mass cultivation has been devised and developed in this paper, which is well suited to the outdoor mass cultivation of cyanobacteria, allowing operation at high cell concentrations (4−7 g liter−1) and achieving high biomass productivity even in winter.

Biomass production and studies on Rhodopseudomonas palustris grown in an outdoor, temperature controlled, underwater tubular photobioreactor.
Pietro Carlozzi,Angelo Sacchi +1 more
TL;DR: A temperature controlled underwater tubular photobioreactor was studied for 6 months in outdoor conditions to determine biomass production of Rhodopseudomonas palustris 42OL and a reduced rate of protein synthesis continued even in the dark.

A two-plane tubular photobioreactor for outdoor culture of Spirulina.
TL;DR: Viscosity measurements performed on Spirulina cultures having different biomass concentrations showed non‐Newtonian behavior displaying decreasing viscosity with an increasing shear rate, which corresponded to a net photosynthetic efficiency of 6.6% (based on visible irradiance).

Dilution of solar radiation through “culture” lamination in photobioreactor rows facing south–north: A way to improve the efficiency of light utilization by cyanobacteria (Arthrospira platensis)
TL;DR: Efficient utilization of solar radiation for the photoautotrophic production of cyanobacterium biomass was achieved, using small pipes arranged in rows in two photobioreactors facing south-north, with good results.

Microalgal biomass drying by a simple solar device
TL;DR: In this paper, an inexpensive and simple solar device was constructed and monitored for drying microalgal biomass with 90% moisture content, which was capable of producing about 140g dry biomass per sq.m of collector area in 3-5 hours.
