Journal of Engineering Research and Education (JERE)
Biochamber of banana tissue culture is one of the technology for plant propagation that using the
Aeroponics System. The aeroponics method is applied because it requires sterile environment.
The project is done in order to control the environment for the banana tissue culture propagation
using a biochamber. It consists of researching the banana tissue culture propagation and the
aeroponics method, surveying and analyzing the hardware requirement such as pump, valve,
nozzle, Reverse Osmosis System, sensors and Laminar Flow Cabinet. The process is controlled
by using the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).
