Technical study of pilot plant and industrial photobioreactors
Original language description
Petrochemical, food and processing technologies produce a large number of emissions and waste heat. There is, therefore, a potential to use emission gases, rich for CO2 especially, together with waste heat to produce algae-based biofuels and to reach a concept of emission-free technology – these are third generation biofuels. CO2 is the most important nutrient component for algae. Generally known, the transformation of both CO2 and waste to algae occurs in photobioreactors of various technical configurations, nowadays primarily in lab scale. Today are known five main types of photobioreactor - open pond, tubular, plastic bag, column airlift, and flat-panel airlift reactors, that have potential for scale-up to industrial scale. The purpose of this study is critically overviewed design and process configurations of photobioreactor designs in the pilot and full scale, i.e. that are patented and running in industrial scale with the scope of technical and design parameters like algae yield, working temperature, light/dark conditions, flow regime, sensitivity to flow regime, availability of scale-up rules, difficulty in the design of production line, machines and equipment, their operation, economics, lifetime etc.
