Mechanistic modeling of broth temperature in outdoor photobioreactors.
This study presents the first mechanistic model describing broth temperature in column photobioreactors as a function of static (location, reactor geometry) and dynamic (light irradiance, air temperature, wind velocity) parameters. Based on a heat balance on the liquid phase the model predicted temperature in a pneumatically agitated column photobioreactor (1 m(2) illuminated area, 0.19 m inter...
متن کاملDesign tool and guidelines for outdoor photobioreactors
This study provides design and operational guidelines for achieving maximum biomass productivity in outdoor photobioreactors (PBRs). Detailed simulations of coupled light transfer and growth kinetics of microalgae were performed for open ponds, vertical flat-plate, and tubular PBRs operated in batch mode and exposed to time-dependent collimated and diffuse solar irradiance. The temporal evoluti...
متن کاملHollow fibre membrane arrays for CO2 delivery in microalgae photobioreactors
Microalgae can serve as a carbon sink for CO2 sequestration and as a feedstock for liquid biofuel production. Methods for microalgal biomass and biofuel cultivation are progressing, but are still limited in the efficiency of light delivery and gas exchange within cultures. Specifically, current gas exchange methods are very energy intensive since they rely on mixing algal cultures at high flow ...
متن کاملTechnical insight on the requirements for CO2-saturated growth of microalgae in photobioreactors
Microalgal cultures are usually sparged with CO2-enriched air to preclude CO2 limitation during photoautotrophic growth. However, the CO2 vol% specifically required at operating conditions to meet the carbon requirement of algal cells in photobioreactor is never determined and 1-10% v/v CO2-enriched air is arbitrarily used. A scheme is proposed and experimentally validated for Chlorella vulgari...
متن کاملSlab waveguide photobioreactors for microalgae based biofuel production.
Microalgae are a promising feedstock for sustainable biofuel production. At present, however, there are a number of challenges that limit the economic viability of the process. Two of the major challenges are the non-uniform distribution of light in photobioreactors and the inefficiencies associated with traditional biomass processing. To address the latter limitation, a number of studies have ...
