A dynamic model of microalgae cultivation phase is presented in this work. Two technologies are taken into account: the open raceway pond and flat panel photobioreactor. For each technology, able to evaluate areal volumetric productivity energy production consumption. Differently from most common existing models literature, which deal with a specific part overall process, here includes all physical chemical quantities that mostly affect growth: equation growth rate for influenced by CO2...
The sugarcane industry has been responsible in some countries for the production of most sugar and ethanol available world internal external markets. In this sector, can be produced by fermentation sugars obtained directly from biomass, commonly called 1st generation ethanol. New processes using enzymatic hydrolysis technology lignocellulosic residues like bagasse leaves as feedstock increase these plants, reducing land requirements environmental impact biofuels large scale. is one promising...
