Basics

  • A Type of Photobioreactor using a Biofilm affixed to a substrate that rotates
    • This optimizes Algal Density and Gas Exposure while limiting Complexity
    • More energy intensive than an Algae Turf Scrubber for the benefit of enhanced efficiency
      • Albeit Citation needed
  • An easy to understand example would be a “Clip-On” Fish Tank Filter with the Waterwheel looking device
    • This is essentially a miniaturized RABR optimized for Nutrient Removal
