Problems solved by technology

Tubular, column and plate photobioreactors are typical closed photobioreactors. On this basis, many new photobioreactors have been developed. Although the shortcomings of open photobioreactors have been overcome to a certain extent, However, the photosynthetic efficiency and light energy utilization efficiency of microalgae are still low

Embodiment approach

[0031]In the first preferred embodiment, the first side 231 and the second side 232 are straight sides, and the flow velocity of the liquid containing microalgae is 0.5-2.5 m / s.

[0032] In the second preferred embodiment, the first side 231 and the second side 232 are concave curved sides, and the flow velocity of the liquid containing microalgae is 0.3-2m / s; more preferably, the first side 231 has a first radius of curvature, The second side 232 has a second radius of curvature, the first radius of curvature is greater than or equal to the second radius of curvature; more preferably, the first radius of curvature is 2-10 times the height H1 of the spoiler 2, and the second radius of curvature is 1-5 times of the height H1 of the flow part 2 .

[0033] Those skilled in the art should understand that the concave curved side means that relative to the spoiler section 23, the curved side is concave to the inside of the spoiler section 23, such as Figure 4 In (b) shown.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for large-scale cultivation of microalgae. The method is characterized in that microalgae are cultivated in a photobiological reactor under microalga cultivation conditions. The reactor comprises a channel (1) allowing a liquid containing algae to flow and spoilers (2), the spoilers (2) are formed through the extension of spoiling sections (23) along a first direction (Y), each of the spoiling sections (23) comprises a first edge (231), a second edge (232) and a third edge (233), the first edge (231), the second edge (232) and the third edge (233) extend along the first direction (Y) to form a first spoiling surface (21), a second spoiling surface (22) and a base surface respectively, the base surface is applied to the internal surface of the channel (1), the first spoiling surface (21) and the second spoiling surface (22) are arranged oblique to the base surface, and the first direction (Y) intersects with the extension direction of the channel (1). The method can improve the yield of the microalgae.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for cultivating microalgae on a large scale. Background technique [0002] In recent years, microalgae have been considered as one of the important raw materials for bioenergy and a long-term strategy to solve the future energy crisis, and have become a research hotspot. At present, the large-scale cultivation of microalgae is the bottleneck restricting the development of the microalgae bioenergy industry chain. How to realize the large-scale and high-yield cultivation of microalgae is one of the problems to be solved urgently. [0003] Light transmission is the main factor affecting the large-scale cultivation of microalgae, which directly affects the photosynthetic efficiency, growth state and light energy utilization rate of microalgae. In the research and development of microalgae culture, the photosynthesis characteristics of microalgae can be used to improve photosynthetic efficiency, for example, when the repla...
