Development of advanced control strategies for microalgae production (ECOALGA)

This project is aimed at automation and control for the company Microalgas Carboneras S.L. Likewise, a technical evaluation of the available microalgae production plant is included, where various recommendations are collected regarding possible improvements that can be applied. Finally, a list of minimum materials necessary for the start-up of a plant at an industrial level for the production of microalgae biomass in the town of Carboneras (Almería) is collected.

Objectives:

• Technical advice for the setup o a microalgae producing installation.
• Development of a monitoring and control system for a new microalgae culture installation.
• Elaboration of a performance evaluation report.
• Suggestion of improvements.
