EFFECT OF LIGHT INTENSITY ON THE GROWTH OF CHLORELLA VARIABILIS
Abstract
Microalgae are increasingly employed for production of a wide range of industrial chemicals. Light intensity is an important parameter affecting microalgae cell growth. Analysis of light penetration into the algae culture broth is important for an efficient photobioreactor design. In this study, effect of light intensity on the growth of microalgae species Chlorella variabilis was investigated in a compartmentalized photobioreactor system. The optimal range of light intensity for highest growth rate (0.037 h-1) and cell concentration (0.30 gdw/L) was found to be 17 - 36 klux, lower light intensities yielded in significantly slower growth and lower cell concentrations. Photoinhibition effect was clearly observed at light intensities above 36 klux. Maximum photobioreactor depth which can provide 95% of the maximum growth rate was determined to be 8 cm
