Abstract

Most relevant factors influencing microalgal growth are light availability and utilization. The concept of maintenance energy is essential to understand the energy requirements for cell growth and is also a key parameter of most mathematical growth models,including those used for large scale design.In this work continuous experiments were carried out in laboratory-scale flat-plate photobioreactors (PBRs, in order to investigate the effect of light intensity and irradiation regime on S.obliquus
