High yield, low cost

Algae production is a growing industry with significant potential. LGem focuses on the manufacture, sales and support of equipment for the production of Algae for Fuel, Food, Feed, R&D and Cosmetics.

LGem, based in Holland, started in 2006 with the productions of Algae and manufacturing of The GemTube ^TM, a closed photo-bioreactor (PBR) for commercial production of micro-algae. The reactor volume can be from approximately 500 and 750 up to 18.000 liters per Module. This comes down to aprox. 360.000 liter per Ha. This tubular PBR is based on a patented process and reactor design, using high quality industrial components developed and manufactured by Georg Fischer Piping Systems.

Our advantages over conventional tubular PBRs

Prevention of accumulation of dissolve oxygen
Prevention of fouling
Low energy consumption (< 200 Watt/m³)
Simple and robust process control
Low costs because it’s easy to operate
High yield, low investment
