Article Synopsis
  • The study examines how adding CO affects the growth and biochemical traits of the microalga Tetradesmus obliquus in a hybrid algal production system (HAPS) that combines tubular photobioreactors and thin-layer cascade systems.
  • CO addition was found to enhance productivity and improve the biomass's protein, lipid, pigment, and unsaturated fatty acid content.
  • The HAPS setup demonstrates efficient CO fixation, leading to higher productivity and better-quality biomass in microalgae cultures when used in open systems.

In recent years, numerous studies have justified the use of microalgae as a sustainable alternative for the generation of different types of fuels, food supplementation, and cosmetics, as well as bioremediation processes. To improve the cost/benefit ratio of microalgae mass production, many culture systems have been built and upgraded. Mathematical modeling the growth of different species in different systems has become an efficient and practical tool to understand both physical and biochemical phenomena in play during algae cultivation.
