Description

Eco-friendly vessel for capturing and utilizing green algae and system including the same {Aldge Separate Ship and System}

The present invention relates to an apparatus for collecting and utilizing green algae, and more particularly, to an environment-friendly vessel for collecting and utilizing green algae and utilizing the collected algae as a resource and a system including the same.

In recent years, floating green algae grows largely in green and red in the oceans, lakes, and slow-flowing streams.

The occurrence of green algae and red algae is an abnormal mass growth in which the color of water changes to green, red, yellow, reddish brown, etc. due to the mass reproduction of phytoplankton, a photoreactive organism such as cyanobacteria, coccyx algae or diatoms in fresh water and sea. Changing colors, causing disruption in the diversity of aquatic species, including fish, in the waters of development, and proliferating only a single species of microalgae, causing a lot of damage in terms of social, economic and environmental aspects.

As described above, these harmful algae do not have efficient prevention methods yet, and there is no recycling method, and the algae are collected using flocculation flotation or pressurization flotation as part of the water quality improvement business. Is an organic waste with no recycling plan and is disposed of as a landfill after incineration. In particular, the microalgae collected using toxic inorganic flocculants such as aluminum sulfate, PAC, and artificial synthetic polymer flocculant contain high concentrations of aluminum and have high pH, which limits industrial recycling.

However, microalgae, an underwater photoreactive organism, can convert biodiesel to fats that store up to 30% or more of their body weight, and bioethanol to carbohydrate-rich species. Up to about 100,000 liters of biofuel can be produced per square meter.

In addition, such algae contain a large number of proteins, and recently, their use as aquaculture feeds is being studied.

It may be configured in various forms such as form.

However, preferably, the front portion of the ship is preferably formed of a ship body 20 in the form of a carpet shown in FIG. 3, which may smoothly collect birds according to the operation of the ship.

The ship body 20 is provided with a raw water collecting device 100, the raw water collecting device 100 is provided on one side of the ship main body 20 to collect sea water or fresh water containing algae.

The raw water collecting device 100 may be formed in various forms, but in the case of raw water collecting device 100 provided in the environment-friendly green algae collecting and recycling vessel 10 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention shown in Figures 3 to 4 It may be provided with a collecting means for collecting algae as described above and a hopper 120 for collecting the collected algae into the vessel.

First, the collecting means can be configured in various forms, as shown in Figure 3 flocculation flotation zone setting means 130 is formed by connecting a plurality of air bags to set the area where the algae can be flocculated and float, the flocculation flotation In the zoning means 130 includes algal flocculation flotation means 140 in the form of a microbubble injector that injects microbubbles for flocculating flotation under water.

And a compressor 150 that provides pneumatic pressure to generate fine bubbles in the algae flotation floating means 140.

Therefore, when the algae flotation flotation means 140 generates microbubbles, the algae flocculates and floats up to the algae under the water surface through the microbubbles so that the algae can be collected more easily from the hopper 120. .

Next, the hopper 120 will be described. The hopper 120 is provided so that the raw water collection height can be varied according to the distribution position according to the depth of the algae or the depth of the river or the ocean in the river or the ocean.

The first treatment water sterilized by passing through the sterilization apparatus 210 is moved to the decanter 220 and the centrifuge 230 so that the algae can be separated according to the size and specific gravity of the algae.

The decanter 220 supplies the second treated water that separates the solid matter and algae cells in the form of large particles from the first treated water in the form of a centrifugal sedimenter to the centrifuge 230. .

The secondary treated water supplied to the centrifuge 230 is discharged to the ocean as the third treated water separating the solid material and algae cells in the form of small particles while passing through the centrifuge 230.

Before the third treated water is discharged, it may be sterilized again through the sterilization apparatus 210 and then discharged to the ocean.

Solid and algae cells in the form of large and small particles discharged from the decanter 220 and the centrifuge 230 are introduced into the algae recycling apparatus 240 and are available on land or at sea. It is processed into necessities such as clothing, footwear or shoes, and biomass raw materials.

That is, the solid particles and algae cells in the form of large particles and small particles are processed into raw materials of various fields through a powdering step of controlling moisture to 5 to 10% through natural drying or artificial drying. .

Eco-friendly green algae collection and recycling vessel 10 according to the present invention is provided with a storage tank 262 for storing the solid particles and algae cells in the form of large particles in addition to the storage tank 262 After adding purified water and supplying it to the secondary decanter 250, the solid material and algae cells in the form of large particles may be further purified and separated to discharge only purified algae cells. Can be configured to
