Description

A kind of complex intensifying based on hollow light guiding pipe declines algae optical biological reactor
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of bioreactor for photosynthetic microdisk electrode, particularly relate to a kind of complex intensifying based on hollow light guiding pipe and to decline algae optical biological reactor.
Background technology
Global warming and fossil energy shortage are two hang-ups that the mankind faced in 21st century.Global warming mainly causes due to a large amount of discharges of greenhouse gases, greenhouse gases are of a great variety and different types of greenhouse gases are different to the contribution of Greenhouse effect, carbonic acid gas is considered to topmost greenhouse gases, it is maximum to the contribution of Greenhouse effect, and the discharge therefore reducing carbonic acid gas effectively can alleviate the trend of global warming.The shortage of fossil energy is mainly due to caused to consuming excessively of fossil energy in human social development process, and the Devoting Major Efforts To Developing of renewable energy source effectively can alleviate the restrictive function of fossil energy shortage to human social development.Photosynthetic micro-algae both may be used for the discharge that high-performance bio stabilizing carbon dioxide reduces greenhouse gases, simultaneously ripe microalgae biomass may be used for again a difficult problem for production biofuel reply fossil energy shortage, now become the focus of international community's research, start the upsurge that one studies micro-algae.
Micro-algae is that a class not only can photoautotrophy but also can the microorganism of heterotrophism; it is of a great variety; widely distributed; wherein the micro-algae of photosynthetic autotrophs has the advantages such as photosynthetic rate is high, strong, the ripe microalgae biomass of fast growth, adaptive capacity to environment is of many uses; can be used for efficient stabilizing carbon dioxide and reduce greenhouse gas emission; simultaneously; ripe microalgae biomass both can be used for production biofuel alleviating energy crisis; can be used for again producing the high value added products such as medicine, makeup, healthcare products, there is the good energy and economic worth.
Bioreactor is the product institute that photosynthetic micro-algae carries out photosynthesis stabilizing carbon dioxide synthesis of organic substance.Efficient bioreactor is conducive to the high-density, the large scale culturing that realize micro-algae.The bioreactor that present stage is used for microdisk electrode is mainly divided into open and closed two kinds, wherein Race-way photobioreactor mainly refers to raceway pond bioreactor, it has, and laid down cost is low, simple operation and other advantages, but its culture condition is wayward, microalgae biomass yields poorly, algae kind vulnerable to pollution, the cultivation that chlorella, spirulina and salt algae etc. can tolerate the algae of extreme environment can only be used for.Closed photo bioreactor overcomes the above-mentioned shortcoming of Race-way photobioreactor, have culture condition controlled, be applicable to the advantages such as all algae culture, the high-density that can realize microalgae cell and large scale culturing, but the shortcomings such as cost is high, complicated operation that it has, but consider the utility value that micro-algae is good, the focus that closed photo bioreactor will be research all the time.Therefore, a kind of closed photo bioreactor that is efficient, low cost is designed most important for the large-scale application realizing micro-algae.
Luminous energy and carbon source are the two large principal elements affecting photosynthetic autotrophs micro algae growth, and therefore, efficient microalgae photobiological reactor should be able to provide good luminous energy supply and carbon source supply.
First, luminous energy is that micro-algae carries out photosynthesis institute essential condition, but for the growth of micro-algae, light intensity can produce photoinhibition too by force, light intensity is too weak, can produce light restriction phenomenon, light restriction and Xanthophyll cycle are all unfavorable for the growth of micro-algae, and the light distribution therefore in bioreactor should avoid the generation of light restriction and photoinhibition as far as possible.On the other hand, along with the growth of microalgae cell, in reactor, micro algae biomass concentration rises, along optical propagation direction in algae liquid, light intensity will exponentially rule decay, make the region light intensity away from light source place in reactor very weak, the demand of micro algae growth to luminous energy can not be met, therefore, efficient bioreactor should be able to provide larger light application ratio surface-area, region light intensity away from light source place in reactor is too weak, to such an extent as to the demand of micro algae growth to light can not be met, efficient microalgae photobiological reactor should be able to import light into the region that in reactor, optical attenuation is serious, improve the efficiency of light energy utilization.
Secondly, for most of bioreactor, carbonic acid gas is the carbon source of micro algae growth, carbonic acid gas mainly to enter in the micro-algae suspension in reactor with the form of bubble via the gas distributor in reactor, the size of bubble will affect total gas liquid interfacial area, and then affects mass transfer effect.Bubble is less, and its specific surface area is larger, and gas-liquid mass transfer is better.On the other hand, when in the process that bubble floats after reactor bottom produces in micro-algae suspension, easily there is coalescence phenomenon in the bubble of consecutive position, and make bubble volume become large, specific surface area reduces, and makes gas-liquid mass transfer deleterious.Therefore, efficient bioreactor should have good gas distributor and produce evenly tiny bubble, certain measure also should be taked to avoid or reduce the coalescence phenomenon in bubble floating process simultaneously, and then strengthening gas-liquid mass transfer.
Moreover, there are some researches show, when the intermittent alternating motion of microalgae cell is in reactor when light intensity region (light district) and light weak-strong test (dark space), its growth velocity and optical energy utilization efficiency can be greatly improved, people claim this effect for " sparkle effect ", namely, when frustule shuttles between the light district and dark space of bioreactor, the microalgae cell having accepted illumination just can be made to enter dark space in time and to carry out dark reaction, simultaneously, make the microalgae cell completing dark reaction get back to light district and again accept illumination, the photon entered in reactor so just can be made to be fully utilized.Therefore, when designing high-efficiency photobioreactor, can by modes such as the structures of altering reactor, make frustule alternating motion Yu Guangqu and dark space, the motion of frustule meets certain light/dark loop cycle, realizes the object that " sparkle effect " significantly improves microalgae biomass productive rate and the efficiency of light energy utilization.
Good disturbance is also vital for the growth of micro-algae, its advantage be mainly reflected in following some: 1. good disturbance can strengthen gas-liquid mass transfer.The mass transfer of strengthening carbon source from gas phase zone to liquid phase region on the one hand, growth for frustule provides sufficient carbon source, reinforcing mass transfer is conducive to realizing discharging dissolved oxygen in time from microalgae cell suspension on the other hand, avoids the too high restraining effect to algal grown of oxyty; 2. good disturbance can reduce the intercellular deposition with microalgae cell of mutually blocking, and is conducive to ensureing that each frustule enjoys identical intensity of illumination and nutritive substance condition; 3. good disturbance can avoid the thermal stratification in microalgae cell suspension; 4. good disturbance can make frustule replace the light intensity region of back and forth movement in reactor and light weak-strong test, is conducive to utilizing light/dark Alternate Phenomenon strengthening light biochemical reaction, improves micro algae growth speed and the efficiency of light energy utilization.
To sum up, the design of efficient microalgae photobiological reactor can be considered from following three angles: the transmission 1. strengthening light, increases light application ratio surface-area, improves the efficiency of light energy utilization; 2. reinforcing mass transfer, the growth for frustule provides sufficient carbon source, and discharges the oxygen of photosynthesis generation in time; 3. light biochemical reaction is strengthened, for the light biochemical reaction in microalgae cell provides optimal conditions.
Therefore, if above-mentioned three strengthening means can be coupled, the over-all properties improving microalgae photobiological reactor will be conducive to.
