HINBEN-Solaroof Algae Controlled Environment Module HINBEN- SolaRoof Controlled Algae Environment Module designed for the University of Oslo (UiO) Project.  This Module is designed for small Scale Research and other requirements listed below.  It has a working interior space of about 4 M (width) by 12 M (length) with a large door at one end wall and a small exit door at the opposite end. It is completely modular and de-mountable into easily transportable sections and components for rapid site assembly and is a totally bolted frame the can be completely disassembled for shipping in small volume, light weight package. It has substantial reservoir system built into the tanks under bench system that are provided on all sides and end walls (except at doors) and so a substantial liquid mass is available as a Liquid Thermal Mass and to function for culture systems and this massive weight of liquid also is the building anchor for a footing system that is placed on grade (or floor slab) and needs no ground anchors or dug footings and so is a portable light weight structure if the liquid tanks are emptied. At 50 M2 of internal bench/floor workspace area this is the smallest self-contained professional R&D structure. It is delivered with a standard SolaRoof double (optional triple layer) covering system (with integral BubbleTech and Liquid Solar processes) with a glazing surface area of (approximate area for now) 150 M2 that has a light amplification property to increase sunlight reception by 2 times normal insolation potential. The CEM can operate efficiently and provide a highly tuned controlled environment for all Biological, Botanical and LifeScience R&D and has a Mass Algae Culture (MAC) kit if that is needed. It can also be equiped for Controlled Environment Agriculture/Aquaculture (CEA/A) and combined systems. The enclosed space has a vertical clearance of 4 Meters and 2 Meters over the bench area and a central maximum clear space of 5 M under the central 9 M length ridge of the arched roof/wall system.
