- Development of a low-cost real-time monitoring system for biomass concentration and environmental factors in microalgae Limnospira fusiformis cultivation. Workie, Desalegn Tadesse Chowdhary, Anupreet Kaur Sekine, Mutsumi Larry, Washburn Woldie, Ayirkm Adugna Kishi, Masatoshi Toda, Tatsuki Biomass Microalgae Spirulina Hydrogen-Ion Concentration Temperature The rising demand for spirulina (Limnospira spp.) highlights the need for affordable cultivation methods and practical biomass monitoring solutions. This study introduces a novel, low-cost, Raspberry Pi-based system for real-time monitoring and automated biomass recovery in microalgal cultivation. The system integrates turbidity, light, pH, and temperature sensors with an automated module for harvesting and medium replenishment. Cultures of the filamentous, spiral-shaped microalga Limnospira fusiformis were used to evaluate system performance. The turbidity sensor showed strong correlation with optical density (R = 0.943-0.986, p
