Building installation for A-PhBR (R. Cervera and J. Pioz)
• The A-PhBR, to be integrated into the architecture and urban real estate, do not
consume space or territory, reducing the footprint of farming and therefore
having an ethical attitude in biomass production.
• Installation costs are much lower than the industrial PhBR as for the A-PhBR,
as part of the enclosures or architectural envelopes, are amortized over their
own constructive role.
• The A-PhBR consumes CO 2 in the city itself, helping to improve the air quality
wherever needed.
• It has aesthetic and extraordinary iconic value, which is assessed by the
combination of the two functions, architecture and culture, causing the actual
value (i.e., values that are willing to pay companies and institutions for it)
which is equivalent to the enclosures with very high end (e.g. curtain walls).
