A raceway pond is a shallow artificial pond used in the cultivation of algae. [1] [2] The pond is divided into a rectangular grid, with each rectangle containing one channel in the shape of an oval, like an automotive raceway circuit. From above, many ponds look like a maze.

Open raceway ponds (ORP) are closed-loop, usually shallow, that use a paddle-wheel mixer, which circulates the algae and nutrients, and promote a low shear environment (Quiroz-Arita et al., 2020). Raceway ponds face diverse climate conditions like solar radiation, and air …

Raceway ponds are affordable and effective algaculture systems that are usually built to take advantage of natural sunlight. While they make look like simple oblong ponds with a few internal divisions, they’re actually far more complex and require a lot of engineering skill to build.

2016年3月10日 · Raceway ponds are widely used in commercial production of algal biomass. They are effective and inexpensive, but suffer from a relatively low productivity and vagaries of weather. This chapter discusses design and operation of raceways for large-scale production of …

Microalgae cultivation in raceway ponds represents a significant advancement in the bioeconomy, offering a sustainable solution to the environmental challenges posed by industrialization and population growth.

Design of Raceway Ponds for Algae Biomass Production using Produced Water October 15, 2014 Soumya Yadala, Selen Cremaschi, PhD The University of Tulsa 2014 International Petroleum Environmental Conference Houston, TX October 14-16,2014

develop a raceway system pow-ered by air-lift pumps that could float in existing ponds and have some of the advantages of tradi-tional raceways such as: 1) higher fish densities, 2) better water qual-ity, 3) waste collection, 4) precise disease treatment, and 5) better control over feeding, grading, har-vest, etc. In a pond, this system

Raceway ponds are an innovative and affordable type of algaculture system that takes advantage of natural sunlight. It takes a lot of engineering to build an effective raceway. The design needs to be based on your algae culture’s target viscosity along with …

Light supply and distribution amongst the microalgae culture is one of the major challenges of photo-bioreactor design, with many studies focusing on microalgae culture systems such as raceway ponds (RWP), widely used and cost effective systems for algal biomass production.

2017年5月11日 · The new RW3.4 Algae Raceway® reduces the time required for operators to clean the ponds after a harvest and quickly inoculate the next batch. The raceway volume is 950 liters at 30 cm depth and comes standard in white HDPE with a UV stabilizer.
