Sunny bioreactor

One potential source of biofuel is microalgae. The potential yield of oil refined by microalgae is thought to be many times greater than the next best crop – palm oil.But algae need natural light to grow, and that can be in limited supply inside the chambers that act as bioreactors.
So David Bayless, professor of mechanical engineering at Ohio University in Athens, US, has designed a bioreactor fitted with optical fibres that channel sunlight into the chamber.
A cylinder 10 centimetres wide and 2 metres tall is filled with microalgae, water and nutrients. A solar collector fitted to the outside of a building then channels sunlight though optical fibres into the container. That gives the algae ample light even when the chambers are otherwise hidden from the sun.
