What it is about

You learn to culture and operate microalgae, mainly in the context of life-support systems. In the end you can build and operate microalgae cultures, plan and conduct experiments, and evaluate culture state and growth.

What you will be able to do

  • Understand the use and cultivation of microalgae for life-support systems
  • Assess cultivation and expansion of microalgae cultures for long-term manned spaceflight missions
  • Design and prepare microalgae culture for space applications
  • Analyze and adapt cultivation conditions (e.g., medium, light intensity) for specific mission requirements

What the module consists of

  • Praktikumintroduction to microalgae cultivation, construction and operation of photobioreactors; group work with own culture

Teaching method

  • theoretisch-praktische Erläuterungenconvey background knowledge and explain laboratory protocols
  • Laborprotokolle und praktische Laborarbeitenable independent execution and traceability of experiments on site at the Ottobrunn campus
