Abstract

Profile construction made of metal or plastic, which is attached to new and / or existing buildings for the fixed connection of the building with the modular greenhouse according to Fig. 1.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an energy-efficient, intelligent and modular greenhouse with an interface(s) integrated into the overall system for the exchange of indoor air in rooms used by humans and / or animals, while simultaneously increasing the oxygen content in the rooms and reducing CO₂. 2 - Proportions in the exhaust air.

[0002] The greenhouse consists of a metal or plastic structure of standardized containers that can be expanded at any time and / or a free metal or plastic structure for accommodating / installing semi-transparent photovoltaic modules in the roof and side wall area to generate electrical energy while simultaneously allowing sunlight to pass through as a prerequisite for plant growth.

[0003] The greenhouse has one or more interfaces / permanently integrated adapters for connecting one or more ventilation systems for exchanging the air in areas occupied or used by people and / or animals. Used air is drawn into the greenhouse and then expelled through another system / interface. The building itself is supplied with fresh air externally, corresponding to the amount of used air drawn into the greenhouse.

[0004] The used air with high CO2 levels is piped into the greenhouse 2 This component acts as a fertilizer and growth accelerator for plants. Assuming a greenhouse size of 28.27 square meters / standard 40-foot container, at an air saturation of 600 ppm (volume parts per million) with CO₂... 2 due to photosynthesis a CO 2 Reduction / consumption of approximately 70 kg CO₂ 2per day. Humans produce an average of 1 kg of CO₂ through respiration alone. 2 per day.

[0005] The use of a ventilation system with an intake into a greenhouse creates further sustainable advantages such as: - Reliable removal of pollutants and fine dust in the exhaust air through the use of filters. - Moisture recovery to combat dry heating air - Protection of the building structure from moisture damage - Keeping insects away - Protection from outside noise through closed windows

[0006] The greenhouse features specialized lighting electronics because light is the source of energy that plants need for photosynthesis. It triggers specific developmental processes in plant cells, supports flowering, and promotes overall growth. The lighting electronics consist of modern grow LEDs that do not utilize the entire spectrum of white light, but rather only wavelength ranges that effectively support the plant—from ultraviolet to infrared. Photosynthetically active light radiation in a wavelength range of 400 to approximately 700 nanometers is particularly effective.

[0007] The greenhouse features climate control, an internal water cycle (partially via dehumidification of the incoming air), intelligent ventilation control, light management, and access control. This is all controlled by a central computer, various sensors, and intelligent software for monitoring and controlling the entire system to optimize the use of the introduced CO₂. 2 Air quality in relation to the desired yield in the greenhouse. The energy supply is primarily / ideally entirely provided by the integrated photovoltaic modules.

[0008] The greenhouse should become an integral part of future residential buildings and / or stables, serving as a biological ventilation system for CO₂. 2 Contaminated exhaust air with simultaneous CO 2 Reduction through its use as fertilizer for crops.

[0009] The modular greenhouse, which, depending on its size, saves a considerable amount of CO₂ 2 It can generate reduction and achieve optimal sustainability in residential and / or commercial buildings, while simultaneously being used as fertilizer for plants and thus avoiding artificial fertilizers and pesticides, and should be retrofittable for existing buildings.

[0010] Modular greenhouse for integration into or on spaces or buildings used by animals and / or humans, which are affected by CO₂ 2 Fertilizing plants in greenhouses through exhaust air can contribute to the production of food for humans and / or animals, reducing large-scale agricultural areas and thus avoiding pesticides and the destruction of biodiversity.
