1. Microalgae as the Third Generation Biofuel
... , with the greatest outcomes in the 7 warmest months of the year. Jimenez et al (2003) anticipated the average annual dry weight production rate of 30 tonnes per hectare using the raceway pond of 450 m2 and 0.30 m depth that produces the approximate dry weight of 8.2 g/ m2 per day. With similar measures and biomass concentration, Becker (1994) generated the estimated dry microalgae productivity of 10-25 g/ m2 per day. The enclosed photobioreactor provides an alternative ... technology to produce microalgae, including three systems of tubular, flat plate and column reactors. The closed st...
