About Bionic Photosynthetic Ntsa Iav Thaiv Cua
Bionic Photosynthetic yog ib thaj ntsa iav thaiv cua uas ua haujlwm zoo li tus nqaij photosynthesis (kev tsim zaub mov los ntawm qhov kaj ntuj) ntawm cov nroj tsuag tiag tiag. Tus qauv tsim no muab piv rau cov cag, tus ko taw, cov hlab thiab cov ntsug nqaij ntawm cov nplooj nroj tsuag. Cov hlab uas nqa dej raug 3D print rau sab hauv lub thaiv. Cov kwj no muab dej rau kev ua photosynthesis thiab tshem tawm cov kua uas tsim tau tom qab. Lub thaiv muaj peb theem: ib theem iav khov (tempered glass) npog sab nraud, ib theem xov (cell frame) nyob nruab nrab, thiab ib daim phiaj nyob sab hauv. Cov khoom siv tsim los zoo li cov nqaij (artificial cells) nyob theem nruab nrab muaj chloroplasts nyob rau hauv cov bio-membranes. Qhov kaj ntuj thiab carbon dioxide nkag mus rau hauv cov nqaij no, ces oxygen thiaj raug tso tawm mus rau huab cua.
The Recognition
About the A' Design Award Hlau
Bionic Photosynthetic Ntsa Iav Thaiv Cua yog tus yeej ntawm A' Design Award Hlau, ib qho kev lees paub muaj meej mom uas muab rau cov qauv tsim zoo uas ua tau raws li cov kev xav tau ntawm kev ua haujlwm thiab kev lag luam uas xav tau los ntawm cov khoom tsim zoo. Cov neeg yeej Hlau qhia txog kev txawj loj, kev paub tshwj xeeb siab, kev nkag siab ntawm cov kws tshaj lij thiab lub peev xwm tsim ntawm cov neeg tsim. Bionic Photosynthetic Ntsa Iav Thaiv Cua xav tias yuav yog ib qho khoom tsim uas neeg hwm, qhuas thiab hlub uas siv tau thiab tsim tshiab. Cov qauv tsim yeej A' Design Award Hlau no sib xyaw cov kev coj ua zoo tshaj plaws ntawm kev lag luam thiab muaj cov yam ntxwv siv tshuab txawj ntse txuas nrog kev paub thiab txuj ci. Bionic Photosynthetic Ntsa Iav Thaiv Cua tau txais kev hwm vim nws tag nrho thiab tsim los muab kev txhim kho rau lub neej uas pab ua rau lub ntiaj teb zoo dua.
Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- In this artificial photosynthesis system, the system bionics the roots, stems, veins, and leaf tissue of plants.
In the bionics of the stems and leaves, the design use the function of 3D printing. To print out the veins of the water in the frame of the curtain wall, which includes the water needed before photosynthesis, and post-photosynthesis liquid sending away. There are three layers of tissue in the frame, the upper cover (tempered glass), the cell frame(middle frame), the lower plate. - Dimensions & Packaging
- H 150cm x W 150cm x D 6cm in triangle shape.

- biomimicry, green, SAPS, material, architecture
- Production Technology
- In SAPS, the system bionic the roots, stems, veins, and leaf of plants by 3D printing, which includes the water needed before photosynthesis, and post-photosynthesis liquid sending away. The liquid waste containing glucose can be supplied with other biological nutrients or as a fuel. There are three layers of tissue in the frame, the tempered glass level, the cell frame, and the artificial cells in the middle. The cell contains package with the bio-membranes to contain chloroplasts and all tissues that need to run photosynthesis, also it transfers solar light and CO2 in and let the O2 release to the nature.
- Design Challenge
- Integration with building and finding the most proper plant to do experiment.
- Research
- The carbon dioxide consumption unit is metrics per square centimeter, and the numerical unit is 7.21. The photosynthesis efficiency of using water, the high dissolved oxygen molecular water efficiency is The best. The efficiency of white spectrum is highest in nighttime spectrum selection. In this 24-hour photosynthesis process. It can absorb nearly a half metric ton of carbon dioxide a day, which is the amount absorbed by one half-hectare broad-leaved forest for one-day photosynthesis. This curtain wall can reduce the carbon footprint of the building. If it is sustainable, they will restore the earth's atmospheric system like a forest.
- Inspiration
- If the idea and S.A.P.S. system integrate the characteristics of plants into the building construction materials, the system will imitate the roots, stems, and leaves; giving water, transporting to the leaves, and operating photosynthesis. Then the buildings with S.A.P.S. will be like the leaves of a tree, day and night to operating photosynthesis, continuously reducing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
- Project Duration
- 2019 from Spring to summer in Taipei, Taiwan.
- Operation Flow
- In the bionics of the stems and leaves, the design use the function of 3D printing. The design print the veins of the water in the frame of the curtain wall, which includes the water needed before photosynthesis, and post-photosynthesis liquid sending away. The liquid waste (the design call it energy liquid containing glucose, which can be supplied with other biological nutrients or as a fuel).
