Indoor Batch Algae Reactor - Assembly

ProjectImage

So here is the reactor as it stands at this point in assembly. I have turned the lights on for testing prior to final assembly and filling.

So for our tank we are using a simple plastic container and we drilled two holes in it for the feed lines. As we want to use gravity to help us along here with our water flow as well as much agitation as we can get for our air bubbler pump we will install the drain at the bottom of the tank.

Here is our inlet for the main tank and obviously the pump is running. Use some silicone inside and out to make sure these connections are leak proof.

So here is the pump in action. You will note I have the lid off. The lid will need to have holes poked into it to allow the air we are introducing into the system to exit the system.
