New methodologies for integrating algae with CO2 capture

摘要: It is generally recognized, that algae could be an interesting option for reducing CO2 emissions. Based on light and CO2, can used the production various economically products. Current cultivation techniques, however, still present a number of limitations. Efficient feeding especially large scale, one them. methods to cultures rely sparging pure or directly from flue gas. The limiting factor in this system solubility CO2in water, which demands considerable amount energy effective gas liquid transfer leads losses atmosphere. Due current ineffective introduction into ponds very surface areas would required enough capture CO2. At TNO, amine-based method have been developed utilization where as photochemical desorber absorption liquid. This brings advantage higher removal efficiencies compared systems lower operational cost both conventional using amines autotrophic cultivation.
