Growth Substrates TRIZ Cases
- Homogenized Microbial Cellulose Pulp for Root-Penetrable Growth Media
Wet microbial cellulose is homogenized into a pulp that preserves water retention while opening the structure for root penetration.
- Particle-Size Graded Growing Medium for Uniform Root Moisture
Agitated particle grading places finer material near the top to balance moisture, drainage, and root growth across the growing medium.
- Biodegradable Foam Substrate With Open Cells for Stable Plant Growth
An open-cell biodegradable foam substrate balances root aeration, water retention, and dimensional stability while avoiding pollution and clogging.
- Cocopeat Planting Substrate With Integrated Pot Structure
A cured cocopeat substrate forms its own planting pot, avoiding soaking, reducing plastic waste, and helping block soil-borne diseases.
- Hemp Fiber Biocomposite Crosslinking for Hydroponic Growth Media
Water-based crosslinking of lignin-rich hemp fibers improves bonding, strength, porosity, and water retention without VOC emissions.
- Bentonite Hydrogel Composition for Clean, Resilient Plant Growth
A bentonite-carrageenan hydrogel replaces contaminated substrates while improving water retention, germination, biomass, and reuse in automated growing.
- Biochelant Micronutrient Formulation for High-pH Stability
Sugar-derived biochelants and ring openers improve micronutrient stability at higher pH while lowering sodium and preserving biodegradability.
- Carbon Black Topsoil Conditioning for Erosion and Moisture Control
Mixing carbon black into topsoil improves moisture retention, reduces erosion and dust drift, and warms soil without mulch or pellets.
- Substrate Compaction Control for Uniform Seedling Tube Production
Real-time vacuum and airflow feedback controls substrate compaction and aeration, cutting waste, energy use, and seedling variability.
- Biodegradable Hydroponic Growth Rods for Pot-Free Root Recycling
Biodegradable permeable growth rods replace plastic pots and stone wool, enabling root-medium recycling while reducing waste and clogging.
- Agar Hydrogel Composition for Water Retention in Food Agriculture
Natural agarophyte hydrogel retains irrigation water without carcinogenic monomers, helping crops resist hydric stress with less watering.
- Agar Hydrogel Fertilizer for Safe Water Retention in Crops
An agarophyte red algae hydrogel stores irrigation water near roots, cutting watering frequency without carcinogenic polymer monomers.
- Lignin Sulfonic Acid Soil Conditioner for Microbial and Mineral Enrichment
Controlled lignin sulfonic acid composition boosts soil microorganisms and inorganic components, supporting higher crop yield and organic agriculture.
