Growth and biochemical characterization of microalgal biomass produced in bubble column and airlift photobioreactors: studies in fed-batch culture (2002, background): “2) in the reactors occurred because of the different magnitudes of effects such as the light–dark cycle frequency[5,20].”
Biodiesel from microalgae. (2007, methodology): “For example, the light saturation constants for microalgae Phaeodactylum tricornutum and Porphyridium cruentum are 185 μE m−2 s−1 (Mann and Myers, 1968) and ˜200 μE m −2 s−1 (Molina Grima et al., 2000), respectively.”
Shear stress tolerance and biochemical characterization of Phaeodactylum tricornutum in quasi steady-state continuous culture in outdoor photobioreactors. (2003, background): “These horizontal tubular bioreactors occupy large land areas and are expensive to build and operate [ 13 ,14].”
A review on microalgae, a versatile source for sustainable energy and materials (2011, background): “These are related to the average irradiance inside the photobioreactor, which in turn is a function of the irradiance on the reactor surface, operational variables such as fluid-dynamics and dilution rate along with the pigment content [32,47,53,57,58].”
