BioAlgaeSorb algal photobioreactor design presentation - Dr Darren Oatley

[@KalynDavis]

Thank you for sharing this presentation. The academia behind this is fascinating and the potentials for a viable bio based carbon scrubber is awe inspiring!

[@arunmani448]

Very good presentation. Waiting for the further updates

Dr. Darren, I have a number of questions on your photobioreactor. a) What is the ideal algae species for indoor bioreactor (in temperate country) b) how much lighting is required for the algae to grow, amount of energy required, c) what is the estimated cost to build i.e. cost / m3 of wastewater, d) how frequent do we need to de-sludge the algae and e) what are the maintenance work required for an efficient operation of the reactor. Thanks.

Merhabalar bende sizin yazınızı okudum bu konu hakkında cevap alabildinizmi konu ile ilgili bende çalışma yapmak istiyorum konu ile ilgili yardımcı olabilirseniz çok sevinirim

@@abidineraslan9938 saya juga mengerjakan hal tersebut mungkin kita bisa berdiskusi ?

[@ericlotze7724]

Will the work be further outlined in a paper, and maybe even the CAD Files / Control Code be released, or is this locked down as intellectual property?

[@sinhnguyen4815]

So you can produce CO2 from limestones or shellfish to feed these special algae cells too? I know the demands for algae crude oils will not wane for a long time. As a fun project like it always was, it should continue as big as it can. Investments will be required. I like how economical it is, how much expertise is required, and how cool the idea of a bio reactor sounds.

This is really greart! I liked it. Thank you. This helped me so far for my Research.

How do you harvest the algae? Is that one and the same as the cleaning you referred to?

[@MladenCrnomarkovic]

Hi, is this this a continuous system? you haven't said much about the harvesting of algae.

[@fabrizzioandres8807]

Outstanding but it would be gread to add the harvesting of the algae.

[@dustinjacobs2512]

How can I measure the amount of CO2 being sequestered from a photobioreactor? It is small, 3L in volume with nanonochloropsis strain of algae.

[@imgayasheck595]

You can measure how much biomass is made and how much oxygen is produced for example

Great presentation !

[@chiarapuleo03]

Are there any flat plate photobioreactors?

[@samkenknight7132]

Seems like a great idea honestly. More surface area without the added challenge of sourcing thick tubes. Seems like this could be way better for DIY scale at the very least.

[@pengolt]

@@samkenknight7132 Hmm but I think there could be a problem with algae film forming on the walls of flat PBR's :)

[@samkenknight7132]

@@pengolt more so than in a tube?

[@pengolt]

@@samkenknight7132 Maybe, but in the tube you have higher velocities of the liquid culture, the forming of the biofilm should be slower

[@pengolt]

Of course this is only my speculation, but I see that many biotech companies which uses PBRs with artificial lighting, they use tubes, not flat panels :)

Hi
Good Presentation.But still there are some flaws we found.Also minute error like "flue" instead of fuel.
Any how useful to the society

[@HatimCyclewala]

its not an error, its called flue gas cause its existing a flue, in this case a chimney
