Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] This invention relates to a photosynthetic reaction system and a method for the same and particularly relates to a vegetable alga and microbe photosynthetic reaction system and a method for the same. [0003] 2. Description of Related Art [0004]Spirulina, a blue-green alga, is high in protein, minerals and fermenting organisms that are beneficial to human health. It is widely recommended as a part of a healthy diet. Through a photosynthetic reaction system, a cultivation liquid for spirulina can be added into the growing environment so that enough photosynthesis occurs to supply ample nutrients to the cells of the algae. Oxygen can then be evaporated from the cultivation liquid so that the spirulina may grow and multiply in large quantities. [0005] A conventional photosynthetic reaction system for spirulina uses a large, open-air cultivation pond. The cultivation liquid for spirulina is contained in the cultivation po...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"This invention provides a vegetable alga and microbe photosynthetic reaction system and method that occupies less area, consumes less power, works regardless of weather, prevents algae from becoming polluted, and ensures high quality of the algae. The system includes a photosynthetic reaction unit, a pressure liquid infusion unit, and an oxygen discharge and regulation unit. The system allows for the circulation of the cultivation liquid and algae seeds within multiple rows of straight sealed piping, resulting in maximized production efficiency. The system also includes a heating unit and a sprinkling unit to control the temperature of the cultivation liquid and efficiently control the photosynthetic reaction. The method involves injecting the cultivation liquid and algae seeds into a light permeable pipeline, allowing the cultivation liquid to flow into the light permeable pipeline for photosynthesis. The system and method provide a simple and cost-effective solution for industrialized mass production."

Problems solved by technology

However, the cultivation pond requires a large area, consumes lots of energy, and the photosynthetic reaction is often affected by the weather.

Pollution also affects the outcome, decreasing the algae's quality.

As such, the prior art method for producing the spirulina has many drawbacks for producers.

Industrialized mass production of the photosynthetic reaction for spirulina is not recommended because the reactor faces many problems such as a complicated production process, high costs, fragility, difficulties in extracting the oxygen, difficulties in controlling the temperature of the cultivation liquid, and difficulties in maintaining the cleanliness and functioning of the reaction tower so as to avoid affecting the photosynthetic reaction and impacting upon the quality of the algae.

Indeed, as can be understood from a reading of the description above, a further improvement is obviously required for the conventional photosynthetic reaction system for spirulina as it is obviously inconvenient and imperfect.
