MODERN TECHNOLOGIES AND INSTALLATIONS DESIGNED TO INDUSTRIAL SCALE CULTIVATION OF MICROALGAE FOR OBTAINING ALGAL BIOMASS
Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
Nowadays, the biomass produced by the energetic plants is rather criticized, because these plants need large culture surfaces, thus competing with the agricultural land allotted to food production. One of the current trends of scientific biological researches with practical goal is the cultivation of algae designed to obtain the algal biomass as an important raw material used in biotechnologies for production of alternative fuel. This paper presents the most up-to-date technologies and installations for industrial cultivation of microalgae together with INMA researches results materialized in the installation of open culture systems growing, of waterfall type.
