Abstract

With the accelerated increase in World population, human activities leave bigger traces on environment and ecology, which are not always signs for good. Especially places where more concentrated populations live in, like metropolitans or bigger cities, these traces are more significant. Today, World population is more than 7 billions of people, and the individual or industrial activities of this population endanger the nature and many living systems. It is recognized that nature cannot handle this massive amount of negative accumulation and humans started to react to minimize the effects of the circumstances that harm nature. Renewable energy technologies are introduced for a better, green and sustainable energy consumption. With the idea of integrating microalgal biotechnology with renewable energy systems, a novel solution to energy problem has been introduced and a futuristic research area has been developed

FOTOBİYOREAKTÖRLER VE SÜRDÜRÜLEBİLİR BİNA UYGULAMALARI

Abstract

Dünya nüfusunda meydana gelen hızlı artış ile beraber, insan aktiviteleri çevre ve ekoloji üzerinde daha büyük etkiler bırakmaya başlamıştır, ki bu etkiler her zaman iyi olmamaktadır. Özellikle popülasyonun yoğun olduğu büyük şehirlerde bu etkiler daha fazla hissedilmektedir. Günümüzde dünya nüfusu 7 milyarın üzerindedir ve bu nüfusun bireysel ya da endüstriyel aktiviteleri doğrultusunda doğa ve diğer yaşayan sistemler zarar görmekte ve tehlike altına girmektedir. Büyük resme bakıldığında, doğanın artık bu negatif etkilerle başa çıkamadığı fark edilmiş ve bu sefer insanlık bu etkileri minimize edebilmek adına çalışmalar yapmaya başlamıştır. Bu bağlamda yenilenebilir enerji teknolojilerinin günlük yaşama entegrasyonu ile daha temiz ve yeşil bir enerji tüketim anlayışı benimsenmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu bağlamda mikroalgal biyoteknolojinin de bina sistemlerine entegrasyonu fikri ile enerji çözümlerine yeni bir yaklaşım getirilmiş ye fütüristik bir çalışma alanı oluşturulmuştur
