| 摘要 |
Disclosed herein are photobioreactor systems for high productivity aquaculture or aquafarming for growing of algae or other organisms in an aquatic environment featuring aspects that favor improved growth rates by achieving control over the contents of the growth medium, including carbon source, nitrogen source, and essential trace elements necessary for growth. In one aspect, a photobioreactor is disclosed which comprises a cavity defined by: a substantially V-shaped base comprising: two base walls, said base walls meeting proximate to an axis defining an interior angle, each base wall comprising: a sloped portion and a substantially vertical portion, a proximal end and a distal end, and a length extending along said axis and a width extending perpendicular to said axis; the cavity being further defined by: a proximal side wall adjacent to said proximal end, and a distal side wall adjacent to said distal end; and the photobioreactor system further comprising: at least one gas delivery system disposed within said cavity and extending parallel to said axis, and at least one carbon dioxide delivery system disposed within said cavity and extending parallel to said axis. In other aspects, methods of use of these systems and kits for their assembly are disclosed.
