AI Technical Summary
The existing photobioreactors suffer from uneven lighting, which prevents some algae from performing effective photosynthesis. Furthermore, algae tend to adhere to the inner wall or settle at the bottom, blocking light and affecting growth and respiration.
A tubular microbial photoreactor is used, which uses a drive motor and belt drive to rotate the turntable to ensure that the culture tubes are evenly exposed to light. The diffusion rate of dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide is increased by water flow agitation and vortex, which promotes the photosynthesis of algae.
Uniform light exposure in the culture tubes was achieved, which improved the photosynthetic efficiency and dissolved oxygen diffusion rate of algae, and promoted algal growth and respiration.
