Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013144915A1] The system of the present invention is such as to exceed the limits of productivity and cost of the production of combustible oil from microalgae by means of a closed-loop, entirely modular system comprising regulation systems of the temperature and of the amount of light independently from the environment, fully installable inside existing industrial facilities, adapted to self-produce and the amount of light in a manner independent of the environment, CO2 and hot water, adapted to integrate the process created so as to produce energy at a constant flow, to perform an effective treatment of the waste and to manage the controlled release of O2, further adapted to be rapidly installed in sites without specific characteristics for example in the case of emergencies such as earthquakes and conflicts. The system of the present invention is further characterised by extremely low atmospheric emissions, for a use of limited amounts of water, net reduction of fertilisers with respect to common agricultural crops, production of oxygen and complete reuse of waste, which is also biodegradable.
