An automated continuous culture system for planktonic algae, constructed from inexpensive and easily obtained components, was tested on a pilot scale as part of a laboratory unit for rearing marine invertebrates. The system has a large light-transfer surface and is filled with a relatively small volume of a continuously circulating medium. The pilot unit occupies a minimum of floor area, 150 cm x 40 cm, and can be easily placed above aquaria to economize on space. It can produce up to 10 I of diatom culture/day at a concentration equivalent to 1,200 µg of chlorophyll a/l. No extensive maintenance is required other than a periodic refilling of the reservoir with chemically sterilized culture medium and a flushing at monthly intervals. The system, by virtue of its flexible design and limited maintenance requirements, has considerable potential for scaling-up to the needs of a commercial operation.
