Optimizing the growth of Haematococcus pluvialis based on a novel microbubble-driven photobioreactor

Summary: Haematococcus pluvialis, the richest bioresource for natural astaxanthin, encounters a challenge of achieving high growth rate when it comes to mass biomass production. Based on the substrate consumption model and Redfield ratio, rapid algae growth benefits from a proper carbon supply. Howe...
