1 Anaerobic digestion of microalgal biomass in lab-scale digesters for the production of volatile fatty acids Jean-Claude Frigon, Marvin Gruhn and Serge R. Guiot 11 th World Congress on Industrial Biotechnology. May th 2014, Philadelphia, PA, USA
2 Plan Introduction Rationale for the project Methodology Culture of Scenedesmus sp.-amdd Digesters Results Operational parameters VFA production Other parameters Techno-economic aspects Concluding remarks 2 Frigon J.-C., AD of microalgal biomass for VFA production, May 13 th 2014
3 Microalgal biomass Unicellular. High diversity: 100k described, 800k estimated. Great at fixating CO novel organic compounds chemically determined. Applications: biofuels (jet fuel, biodiesel, biomethane, biohydrogen, bioethanol); GHG mitigation by CO 2 sequestration; Depollution (N and P from wastewater); Food, animal feed, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, nutraceutical. 3 Frigon J.-C., AD of microalgal biomass for VFA production, May 13 th 2014
4 Anaerobic digestion: general statements Microbiological conversion of organic material in the absence of oxygen, that results in the production of biogas (renewable energy - biofuel) and digestate (fertilizer); AD is a proven and reliable technology (35+ years, thousands installations); AD implementation first as a cleanup / treatment process; For the past 10 years, emphasis on AD as a biofuel production process. 4 Frigon J.-C., AD of microalgal biomass for VFA production, May 13 th 2014
5 Feedstocks for AD SSO, food wastes, FVW; Sludge (municipal, pulp and paper); Manure (bovine, pig, chicken); FOG, slaughterhouse wastes, glycerol; Crops (corn, beets, switchgrass); Microalgal biomass. Recent focus; Valid option: 14.0 MJ/kg vs biodiesel (6.6), ethanol (1.8). Harun et al. (2011).Technoeconomic analysis of an integrated microalgae photobioreactor, biodiesel and biogas production facility. Biomass and Bioenergy, 35 (1), Frigon J.-C., AD of microalgal biomass for VFA production, May 13 th 2014
6 AD pathway Conventional pathway conversion of organics to methane, CO 2. This study we stop at acidogenesis Accumulation of C2-C4 carboxylic acids, lactate, alcohols. 6 Frigon J.-C., AD of microalgal biomass for VFA production, May 13 th 2014
7 Rationale for the project Why are we doing this? To explore other alternatives to biofuel production from microalgal biomass Biofuel alone is often not enough to sustain a viable project; AD can offer more than biofuels: carboxylic acids; Acetic, propionic and butyric acids with a commercial value. Part of a biorefinery approach Tap CO 2 from an emitter; Grow biomass in wastewater (free N and P); Generate added value with a bioproduct; Produce some renewable energy; Closed-loop. Effluent recirculation upstream. 7 Frigon J.-C., AD of microalgal biomass for VFA production, May 13 th 2014
8 Scenedesmus sp.-amdd Why this strain? High AD potential: top 3 from a screening of > 20 strains; Experience with larger-scale growth in wastewater. High yield.
