미세조류 배양용 평판형 광생물 반응기 케이스 개발

Abstract

In recent, the development of renewable energy in needed, due to main energy depletion has been more serious about the demending for oil, coal, natural gas. Also, the study of the alternative energy that is eco-friendly products by convention on climate change has been carried out. Especially, the man cause of greenhouse gas including carbon dioxide that is available renewable energy production is increasing. The study about photobioreactor development that is cultivated microalgae mass production and the method using biomass is lively performing for a photosynthetic microorganism can fix carbon dioxide. Therefore, this study carried out research on cultivation efficiency, product quality and characteristics that are cultivated microalgae for photobioreactor using design, manufacturing of photobioreactor case for microalgae cultivation. Plastic materials combining superior optical characteristic that is suit with flat panel photobioreactor case manufacturing by performing light transmittance test using light transmittance measurement system are selected. With the result of the selected plastics showed that can draw high temperature fluid model constansts in performing high temperature tensile property tests according to temperature and crosshead velocity. For this study, we examed flat panel photobioreactor forming analysis through thickness distribution of photobioreactor designed the three dimensional flat panel photobioreactor in 10-liter grade with finite element analysis program, PAM-FORM applied by PC, PMMA and forecasting pattern change. From the result of the finite element analysis showed that a superior optimal thermoforming process condition and the design plan demending manufacture of flat panel photobioreactor. From the design plan, photobioreactor characteristic was constructed through cultivation tests that is made three dimensional product using rapid prototyping process. Through this 10-liter grade design plan, we analyzed the influence about quality, formability of mould shape, process variable and material thickness from thermoforming analysis of flat panel photobioreactor case based on designed three dimensional 180-liter grade flat panel photobioreactor. From the result of the analysis, the superior optimal design plan of microalgae for mass production 180-liter grade flat panel photobioreactor case.
