ANAULA

Advanced photobioreactor solutions designed for reliability, compliance, and yield. Precision light, automated dosing, and vision‑based analysis help algae producers deliver consistent quality at commercial scale.

Built in Dublin, Ireland
Collaborations include UCD and CABR.ie; CO₂ capture trials with distilleries.

Engineered for regulated markets

Reliability, compliance & yield—by design

Integrated sensors (pH, salinity, NPK, temperature, turbidity) and vision‑based biomass analysis feed AI control loops for dosing and light management. Proven axenic growth with GMP‑ready, SIP‑sterilisable, autoclavable hardware.

Anaula high‑volume photobioreactor system

From retrofit kits to greenfield arrays, Anaula systems scale linearly and deploy fast—without sacrificing quality. Our precision light delivery adapts to strain and growth stage; nutrient and CO₂ dosing are automated based on real‑time feedback.

  • GMP‑ready & SIP‑sterilisable. Autoclavable components and axenic operation protocols for compliance‑critical lines.
  • AI‑driven monitoring & control. Real‑time analytics from pH, salinity, NPK, temperature, turbidity and vision signals keep growth optimal.
  • Modular scale‑up & retrofit. Expand capacity quickly and integrate with existing utilities and controls.

Vision‑based growth analysis continuously optimizes light and dosing to maintain target productivity (>0.6 g/L/day, strain‑dependent) while ensuring consistent quality batch‑to‑batch.

Scale without downtime

Deploy arrays in phases—start with R&D, validate your SOPs, then replicate to pilot and industrial lines. Retrofit solutions shorten time‑to‑capacity while preserving quality.

Frequently asked questions

Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Reach out to our engineering team.

What productivity can Anaula systems support?
Our goal is >0.6 g/L/day, depending on strain and process conditions. Vision‑based analysis and automated dosing help keep growth at target setpoints.
Do your PBRs support axenic operation and GMP workflows?
Yes—hardware is GMP‑ready with SIP‑sterilisable, autoclavable components. We design for aseptic transfers and validation‑friendly operation.
Can you integrate with existing facilities and CO₂ waste streams?
Yes—Anaula supports both retrofit and greenfield deployments. We’ve explored CO₂ capture integration with distilleries and can adapt to your utilities.
Who is Anaula a fit for?
Producers in API (photoautotrophs), biodiesel (lipid‑rich strains), and fish feed/aquaculture (protein‑rich biomass) seeking reliability, compliance, and scalable yield—from R&D through industrial.
