Die "hängenden Gärten" von ecoduna

Die hängenden Gärten von ecoduna vereinen die Oberflächenvergrößerung eines Baumes und die Multiplikation der photoaktiven Schicht des Teiches durch aufrecht stehende Module. Diese Technologie ermöglicht erstmals eine kontinuierliche und kontrollierte Produktion von Biomasse im industriellen Maßstab unter weitest gehender Schonung der Ressourcen und Umwelt.

SCHOTT, the first choice

"To develop world-class technology, it's essential to partner and collaborate with the best innovators in the industry. When it comes to innovations in glass, SCHOTT is our first choice."

Dan Simon, President and CEO of Heliae

To help advance the production technology with the concentrated expertise from the worlds of science and industry, SCHOTT has started a research project in the United States together with the algae technology company Heliae and the Arizona State University (ASU). With ASU‘s test bed facility, it is now possible to directly compare tube-type reactors with other systems such as flat panel or raceway ponds at the same location. The Helix™ reactor from Heliae that is used in this research project has particularly thin and highly transparent glass tubing and is ideal for cultivating different strains of algae.
„The interactions between Heliae‘s and SCHOTT‘s research and development teams over the years have helped both companies develop world-class technology that will truly enable this industry,“ said Dan Simon, Heliae‘s President and CEO during the start-up of the test bed facility in Arizona.

Glass versus plastic

"Using glass offers many advantages over plastic. Besides the chemical resistance, we have been very impressed with the stability of the glass tubes. Plastic requires many more supports that cast shadows. This results in lower efficiency and higher costs"

Arnaud Muller-Feuga, Project Manager at Microphyt (France)

Switching from plastic to SCHOTT glass

"Switching from plastic to SCHOTT glass tubing further enhances the engineering excellence embodied in our BioFence™ systems."

Joe McDonald, Director of Varicon Aqua Solutions (United Kingdom)

Varicon Aqua Solutions Ltd. from the United Kingdom has a lot of experience with their patented Bio Fence TM systems with the more than 100 pilot and commercial systems they are operating worldwide. Over the preceding year, they have been advising their customers to retrofit with glass, due to the lifecycle and cleaning advantages compared to polymer tubes, which they used so far. They recently installed two new projects with glass tubing from SCHOTT in Iceland and Sweden.
