Plant Module Review


There isn't any great magic in the technolgy behind the Graettinger Pattern Greenhouse - the important thing is fitting the system to meet the needs of the community where it will be built. Even so it is vital to have some understanding of what the building blocks of the system are, as your local business people may have very specific ideas about the inputs and outputs of the system, ideas which we've not considered here.

As an example of this the plant requires an air separation module to make nitrogen. This process produces medical grade oxygen and a bit of argon but those are waste products in our location as we have no large scale industrial user or combustion facility such as an incinerator or ethanol plant nearby.

Gaining a solid understanding of what goes in and what comes out will better allow you to identify local businesses that will support the creation of such a system.
