What is an Algae?
The algae are vegetable organisms from the cyanobacteria group which have a very simple structure: without roots, stem or leaves.
The algae require CO2, O2 and sun light to achieve its photosynthetic process. They grow in aquatic media or high humidity, no matter if the water is salty or sweet.
 There are algae from a single all up to multiple cells like the ones of several meters long.
The algae contains calcium, potassium, iodine, magnesium, sulfur, iron, manganese, copper, sodium, selenium, sulphur, silicon and molybdenum, etc. because this product allows to obtain wide variety of sub products.
Algae’s biomass can be used in the production of oils (for further refinement into biofuel and glycerin) and stable fiber (used in proteinic materials and alcohol).

How does this process work?
You get a complete plant to produce biofuel from inoculation of algae up to the bio fuel extraction.
This “turn key” solution allows you to make algae biofuel, controlling the different process stages and with the opportunity to monitor all the variables. If you are interested in research this plant is one of the best tools.

1. Like a pilot plant .

In this kind of plant a control panel allows you to develop control on all the process involved and also allows you to modify the total operation. With the touch scream interface you can make manual or automatic operation of the whole process, observe the variable during the production cycle. You can also diagnose or stop the complete process.

A pilot plant is offered to those research or educational professionals who which to focus on the process rather them the individual knowledge of every device used. A very easy, safe and reliable operation is guaranteed to have  an easy, safe and reliable operation.

The plant is designed not as a single integrated process but as a set of separate sub process which can operate individually. The involved process variables at every step are wired  up to a module or individual panel, where you can make all kind of connectors to our PTS F1616 control system or other control brands.
On every control station, each group of students can develop their own control algorithm trough manual, automatic or remote control, operated by PC, PLC or Stand – alone.
This is by the best educational option for courses on control, automation, electronics and mechatronics.
One of the big advantages is that every workstation doesn’t affect the others. This consideration is useful to simultaneously attend more students. At the end of the course, all the group can coordinate to make a complete production run.
