Laboratory Apparatus to Evaluate Microalgae Production
The application of microalgae for energy purposes and CO2 biomitigation continues to present a number of challenges, including the optimization of culture conditions. The application of experimental designs for microalgae cultivation is difficult, since experiments involving such microorganisms generally last days or weeks. This work proposes a multipurpose laboratory apparatus for the optimiza...
متن کاملLaboratory Procedures, Apparatus and Improvizations
In the recent medical literature, there has been an almost uninterrupted flow of papers describing new methods of desiccation, or introducing some modifications in old methods. It is not the purpose of this paper to describe a new method of desiccation, but to stress certain technical details and amplify certain procedures which it is hoped will be found useful in any method finally selected by...
متن کاملCalibration of laboratory aeration apparatus.
Aeration of some sort is frequently provided during laboratory cultivation of bacteria. Since metabolic responses and the nature of fermentation products may depend upon the amount of available oxygen (Pirt, 1957), it is important to have some adequate measure of this variable. Finn (1954) has pointed out that gassing rates alone are without significance; it is necessary to determine the rate a...
متن کاملModelling lipid production in microalgae
Microalgae offer potentially great opportunities for producing biofuel. In order to optimize triglycerid production, this article proposes a dynamical model of microalgal lipid production. In this model, intracellular carbon is divided between a functional pool and two storage pools (sugars and neutral lipids). The various intracellular carbon flows between these pools lead to a complex dynamic...
متن کاملLife-cycle assessment of microalgae culture coupled to biogas production.
Due to resource depletion and climate change, lipid-based algal biofuel has been pointed out as an interesting alternative because of the high productivity of algae per hectare and per year and its ability to recycle CO(2) from flue gas. Another option for taking advantage of the energy content of the microalgae is to directly carry out anaerobic digestion of raw algae in order to produce metha...
