Thin-Layer Systems for Mass Cultivation of Microalgae: Flat Panels and Sloping Cascades
Original language description
Two basic approaches to microalgae biomass production are used: one applies to cultivation in closed or semi-closed vessels ? photobioreactors, while the other involves open reservoirs with direct contact of the microalgal culture with the environment. The most crucial variable for phototrophic growth is light availability. The amount of photon energy received by each cell is a combination of several factors: irradiance intensity, cell density, length of optical path (thickness of culture layer), rate of mixing as well as cultivation unit design. In practice, this should form a part of the considerations when designing cultivation systems. The highest growth rate and productivity have been achieved in cultivation systems with microalgae layer thicknesslower than 50 mm. The advantage of these thin-layer systems is that high biomass density is reached, which is advantageous for harvesting and processing. Basically, two thin-layer cultivation systems are being used that guarantee high ar
