Haslea ostrearia is a marine diatom known to produce and excrete the marenine blue pigment. Its controlled, continuous and intensified cultivation remains a challenge. Thus, a submerged membrane photobioreactor (MPBR) was implemented in order to simultaneously and continuously cultivate H.

- The study examines how different lighting conditions, such as light spectrum (white vs. red) and incident angles (0° and 60°), affect microalgal growth in photobioreactors (PBR).
- Experiments were conducted using two types of lab-scale PBRs, with a model for Chlorella vulgaris developed from data obtained in a torus PBR, which was then successfully applied to a flat-panel PBR.
- The research highlights a comprehensive analysis of photon absorption and its impact on photosynthetic growth, emphasizing the importance of pigment acclimation under various radiation conditions.
