Abstract: Some embodiments include a microalgae culturing system including a bioreactor adapted to propagate microalgae in a culture solution using in combination at least one of natural and artificial light, and at least one nutrient including at least a carbon source, where the microalgae are freely suspended in and form part of the culture solution. A microalgae feed source is coupled to the bioreactor and a first controller between a water conditioning assembly and the bioreactor. The water conditioning assembly is coupled as an input of supply water to the bioreactor, and configured to condition the supply water to a specified purity that enables substantially unhindered growth of the microalgae in the culture solution to a specified concentration, and the first controller is configured to control supply of the microalgae feed source to the bioreactor.

Abstract: A telescoping bridge crane system arranged to be mounted over a floor of a structure, e.g., a vehicle trailer, and including a pair of enclosed mounting tracks for slidably supporting a runway frame. Trucks are located within the tracks. Each truck includes a hanger. The runway frame also includes two enclosed tracks which are directly supported by the hangers and located beside and parallel to the mounting tracks. A bridge section is mounted between the enclosed tracks of the runway frame by another pair of trucks. The a bridge section supports an extremely low headroom hoist assembly including an actuator, a cable, plural rotatable sheaves and a hook.
