제목 Enhancement of Biomass Productivity in Ocean Floating Ponds with Various Designs
초록 Biofuels from microalgae are considered as one of the potential renewable and sustainable energy sources. However, high costs for construction and operation of culture systems and supplying nutrients have in conventional land-based culture systems. Ocean floating ponds are exposed to restless waves that could be utilized for culture agitation could help reduce costs in algal cultivation. In this study, various designs of floating ponds were used for cultivation of Tetraselmis sp. MBEyh04Gc to evaluate their performances in terms of algal biomass productivity. Compared with a basic design, alternative designs led to more uniform culture distribution in the floating ponds. Furthermore, some design also improved light utilization efficiency by 132%, which led to a 195% -higher biomass productivity than in the basic design. Further optimization with better geometry could enhance algal biomass productivity in the ocean floating ponds.
