ultivation of algae is of worldwide interest. Algae can be used as a raw material for food, animal feed, fuel and chemicals. The cultivation under glass has advantages compared to algae reactors outside. It is simpler to maintain the temperature of the cultivation, because the glasshouse works as a large collector of sunlight. In addition there are no problems with frost in a glasshouse. Besides in a glasshouse the infrastructure (heat, CO2, water, fertilizer) for algae cultivation is present.
