A plastic-type flat panel photobioreactor (PTFPP) prototype was designed for microalgae cultivation as biodiesel feedstock. The growth, biomass, and lipid production of the oleaginous microalga Scenedesmus obliquus were optimized through enhanced design conditions in PTFPP. optimization include a manufactured from 10 µm-thick plastic sheet with dimensions 40 cm width 60 height. bags adjusted by “4 ports” circular adhesion points which make volumetric cultural capacity 5 L. Cultivation replacement sodium nitrate BBM medium urea nitrogen source. subjected to continuous illumination 3000 lux white, fluorescent lamps aerated 1.5 L air/min (equal 0.3 VVM). Biomass PTFPP reached 3 g/L around 40% content (on dry weight basis). Based on GC-MS analysis produced fatty acid methyl ester (biodiesel) S. obliquus, percentage C16 C18 acids more than 90% defined acids. Out this percentage, 66.6% unsaturated profile biomass cultivated could be considered suitable feedstock production.

Cultivation of Algae: Techniques and Challenges

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2024

Algal farming, especially microalgae cultivation, has great promise for several uses, such as the generation of biofuel, food additives, nutraceuticals and wastewater cleanup. However, there are a number obstacles to successful large-scale including cost-effectiveness, growth parameter optimisation efficient technology. The main methods used in algal production explored this chapter, along with their benefits drawbacks. These include heterotrophic fermentation, closed photobioreactors open pond systems. It goes on discuss wider adoption, harvesting, light management, nutritional control contamination. In order overcome these realise full potential algae resource-rich sustainable solution wide range global concerns, chapter concludes by highlighting necessity technical developments creative methods.
