Liquid marbles are liquid droplets coated with micro/nano particles. Liquid marbles have been used as a micro reactor platform for various applications. This paper demonstrates the use of a transparent liquid marble as a micro-photobioreactor for microalgal culture, with the advantages of high light transmissivity and large surface area. We monitored the growth rate of Chlorella vulgaris in this platform and compared it with controls grown in conventional culture flasks. The results indicate that significant culture yield improvement was achieved. The liquid marble-based platform provides a 30-fold increase in maximum cell density. These results open up new possibilities for the liquid marble as a novel photo-microreactor platform for various applications.

Reaction Chemistry & Engineering

Reaction Chemistry & Engineering is an interdisciplinary journal reporting cutting-edge research focused on enhancing the understanding and efficiency of reactions. Reaction engineering leverages the interface where fundamental molecular chemistry meets chemical engineering and technology. Challenges in chemistry can be overcome by the application of new technologies, while engineers may find improved solutions for process development from the latest developments in reaction chemistry. Reaction Chemistry & Engineering is a unique forum for researchers whose interests span the broad areas of chemical engineering and chemical sciences to come together in solving problems of importance to wider society. All papers should be written to be approachable by readers across the engineering and chemical sciences. Papers that consider multiple scales, from the laboratory up to and including plant scale, are particularly encouraged.
