Abstract

DC60 (17/03/53) This invention involves a container for continuous algal microalgae and a continuous microalgae production system, a simple invention designed with a low cost and easy operation. Per system operation But it is efficient in producing algal cells without protozoan contamination. And other types of single-celled algae that do not require this method of fabrication can control the addition of algae culture food into the microbiological vessel. Continuous algae The container for continuous microbial production is a closed container made of resistant material. Hot and chemical And control the inside of the container to have a higher pressure than the outside air by spraying the filtered air Enters the container all the time The algae culture media prepared in the culture container is pumped and filtered by a kit. Filter pore sizes smaller than 1 micron before being introduced into the container. During microalgae production Cells that grow Suspended in the culture medium is continuously pushed out of the algal microbiome by the pressure of the compressed air. Flow from the container to the container to collect the algae. This invention can be used in the aquaculture industry. And other industries Which uses seaweed as raw material, such as in the food and pharmaceutical industries Chemical industry, for example, the invention involved a container for continuous algal microalgae and a continuous algal microalgae production system. It is the invention that is designed to have a simple system for low cost and easy to operate. But it is efficient in producing algal cells without protozoan contamination. And other types of single-celled algae Not wanted The invention method controlled the continuous addition of algae culture feed into the container for producing algae. The container for continuous microbial production is a closed container made of heat-resistant material and chemicals. And control the pressure inside the container to be higher than the outside air by constantly spraying the filtered air into the container. The algae culture media prepared in the culture container is pumped and filtered with a filter set with holes smaller than 1 micron before being introduced into the container. During microalgae production The suspended growing cells in the culture medium are continuously driven out of the algal microbiome by the force of the air flowing from the container into the microalgae. This invention can be used well in the aquaculture industry. And other industries Which uses seaweed as raw materials such as food and pharmaceutical industries Chemical industry, etc.
