Free Air CO2 Enrichment (FACE) Technology
for enquiry please feel free to Contact Us
The Exponentially rising of temperature in environment is major problem now days. Due to these the rise in concentration of CO2 which effectively influence the productivity of various agricultural crops. Innovative approaches for conducting long-term experiment on plant have been developed to investigate the growth and yield response of different plants to predicted elevated level of CO2. Accuracy of result depends on the system and its maintenance of the desired level of CO2 with natural conditions. For that fully automated system has been developed, which helps to agriculture/environmental research scientist to carry out research work for future scope on effect of CO2 level under different climatic conditions.

Why FACE ?
What We Offer
Both horizontal & Vertical GI pipes ( C class) are used in hexagonal structure for CO2 release in FACE Ring. Each ring is of 15 ft height and 10 m of diameter. On each arm of FACE ring manual operated valves at 5 ft gap are used to release CO2 at height of 5 ft, 10 ft and 15 ft. Each horizontal and vertical section of each arm has CO2 releasing nozzles of 0.4mm injection point to cover maximum area of FACE ring. CO2 sampling tube is placed at three different locations in FACE ring to pull air sample through air pump to CO2 analyzer for determination of CO2 concentration in each ring on real time basis.
