Abstract

The invention relates to the field of microalgae cultivation, in particular, the invention relates to a method and a device for cultivating microalgae by supplementing nutrient salts based on pH feedback control. The method adds CO2 through pH feedback to maintain the pH value of the culture system at a set value, measures the amount of CO2 added to the culture system, and utilizes the relationship between the added amount of CO2 and the amount of nutrient salt consumed to control the amount of nutrient salt addition. In the method, the addition amount of nutrient salt feed liquid is calculated by formula (I), wherein, α is the conversion coefficient between nutrient salt consumption and CO2 supplementary quantity, and ΔCO2 is the CO2 supplementary quantity of the culture system. Compared with the traditional method, the method of the invention can control the fluctuation of the nutrient salt concentration in the culture system within a smaller range, can improve the utilization rate of the nutrient salt in the culture process, and save costs.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of microalgae cultivation, in particular, the invention relates to a method and a device for cultivating microalgae by supplementing nutrient salts based on pH feedback control. Background technique [0002] Microalgae can use CO 2 , light, water and nutrients for photosynthesis to synthesize organic substances such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and pigments, which have been widely used in the fields of food, feed, medicine, fine chemicals and dyes. In recent years, with the depletion of fossil energy such as petroleum and coal, the new energy technology of using microalgae to produce hydrogen, produce oil, and refine olefins has attracted great attention. [0003] In microalgae cultivation, the cost of nutrients accounts for a large proportion of the cost of raw materials. Appropriate nutrient control strategies can increase the utilization rate of nutrients and increase the yield of cells or target products, e...
