The Air Bubble is also ecoLogicStudio’s first pneumatic bioreactor . It holds 6,000 liters of water, supporting 200 liters of live Chlorella cultures, filtering 100 liters of polluted urban air every minute. BioFactory Architecture System
ecoLogicStudio recently unveiled the BioFactory architectural system that will transform the way industrial architecture is viewed. The system, which integrates algae photobioreactors into the membrane coating, is suitable for both commercial buildings and factory warehouses. Within the BioFactory architectural model, the convergence between automation, artificial intelligence and biotechnology aims to transform the role of factory employees who gain unprecedented agency in the production process. From advanced computing to micro-agriculture, bio-design and the cooking and gardening of the future, BioFactory promotes a proactive attitude exemplified by the fundamental aspects of growing, harvesting and processing living organic matter. The first BioFactory pilot scheme was set up in
Lisbon at Nestlé's headquarters as a result of one of InGenius' Sustainability Innovation Challenges - Nestlé's Employee Innovation Accelerator.
