Effect of cultivation parameters and heat management on the algae species growth conditions and biomass production in a continuous feedstock photobioreactor

, 2020
The sunshine heat flux is having an essential impact on the photobioreactor system temperature. However, optimal algae growth rates have gained if the algal growth media temperature located between 25 and 30 °C, for most of the kind of the algae. However,

Pilot-scale self-cooling microalgal closed photobioreactor for biomass production and electricity generation

, 2020
Excessive cooling and energy requirements limit microalgal culture in closed photobioreactors. Here, the thermal behavior and biological performance of a spectrally-selective insulated-glazed photovoltaic (IGP) flat panel photobioreactor capable of co ...

Laboratory scale photobioreactor

Biotechnology Techniques, 1994
A photobioreactor using three concentric glass cylinders, with a light source mounted on the axis within them is described. The space between two innermost cylinders is used as a waterjacket, while the culture of phototrophic microorganisms is in the chamber between the outer cylinder and the middle one.

Analysis of photobioreactors in series

Mathematical Biosciences, 2018
A photobioreactor (PBR) contains microalgae which under illumination consume carbon dioxide and substrate dissolved in water, and produce oxygen. The process is used in water recovery resource facilities with a continuous flow of wastewaster through the PBR. With several PBRs in series the reduction of substrate can be improved.

Photobioreactors for Microalgal Biofuel Production

2012
Many different PBR designs have been proposed for biofuel production, few of them have been tested at pilot-scale, none developed at the (large) scale necessary for a complete and correct evaluation. Thus the main issues that impact on the reactor's performance (i.e., suitable construction materials, efficient mixing, heating/cooling, CO2 supply and ...

Coccolithophorid algae culture in closed photobioreactors

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 2011
AbstractThe feasibility of growth, calcium carbonate and lipid production of the coccolithophorid algae (Prymnesiophyceae), Pleurochrysis carterae, Emiliania huxleyi, and Gephyrocapsa oceanica, was investigated in plate, carboy, airlift, and tubular photobioreactors. The plate photobioreactor was the most promising closed cultivation system.

Strengthening flash light effect with a pond-tubular hybrid photobioreactor to improve microalgal biomass yield.

Bioresource Technology, 2020
Poor light utilization efficiency and large occupied area of traditional raceway pond photobioreactors result in low areal microalgal biomass yield in industrial applications.

Outdoor phycocyanin production in a standalone thermally-insulated photobioreactor.

Bioresource Technology, 2020
The operation of solar microalgal photobioreactors requires sufficient cooling and heating to maintain reliable high productivity year-round. These operations are energy-intensive and expensive.

Laboratory Scale Photobioreactors

Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology, 2001
Growing phototrophic microorganisms consume light energy. These microorganisms most often suffer from light deficiency because of exponential decrease in the energy of light passing through an absorbing medium. Therefore, effective distribution of light within the cultures is needed for their intensive cultivation.
