Microalgae population dynamics in photobioreactors with secondary sewage effluent as culture medium
Nitrogen and phosphorus present in sewage can be used for microalgae growth, possibiliting cost reduction in the production of microalgae at the same time that it decreases the eutrophication potential of the effluent. This research aimed at monitoring the native community of microalgae and coliform bacteria in a secondary effluent from anaerobic municipal sewage treatment. Two treatments (aera...
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 کاملOvercoming shear stress of microalgae cultures in sparged photobioreactors.
In the present work we identified and quantified the effect of hydrodynamic stress on two different microalgae strains, Dunaliella tertiolecta and D. salina, cultivated in bench-scale bubble columns. The cell death rate constant increased with increasing gas-entrance velocity at the sparger. Dunaliella salina was slightly more sensitive than D. tertiolecta. The critical gas-entrance velocities ...
متن کاملProduction of Carotenoids Using Microalgae Cultivated in Photobioreactors
Carotenoids comprise a diverse group of natural biomolecules with a plethora of beneficial effects. These compounds include potent bioantioxidants, provitamins, and safe colourants that are in high demand by pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industries. A few species of unicellular algae (called carotenogenic microalgae) mainly the representatives of Chlorophyta, are among the richest biologica...
متن کاملOptimization of Compressible Medium Filter for Secondary Effluent Filtration
Several innovative filtration technologies have been developed in the last two decades to decrease the backwash requirements, to increase the water production efficiency, and to improve the operational and design conditions. The Compressible Medium Filter (CMF) also known as the “Fuzzy Filter” involves the use of a synthetic compressible fiber (polyvaniladene) porous material as the filtering m...
