ALL NEWS ABOUT THIS PROJECT ↴
PRODIGIO
The solar energy conversion into biogas by increasing the performance of microalgae production systems and anaerobic digestion systems thanks to the development of early-warning signals for improved systems monitoring and control.
What is Algae Culture?
Algae are a very diverse group of photosynthetic organisms that include microalgae and seaweeds (or macroalgae). As photosynthetic organisms, they use sunlight energy and carbon dioxide (CO2) to produce biomass.
The algae-eating microbiome that lives inside an anaerobic reactor
In one of the more promising renewable energy systems, oxygen-free, or so-called anaerobic reactors are used to produce biogas, which can be utilized as bio-based fuel.
Empirical dynamic modeling for mechanistic understanding and prediction of bioreactors
The overall goal of WP3 is to analyse the mechanisms underlying the productivity decreases in microalgal PBRs, identify early warning signals.
Presentation of Prodigio WP5 Sustainability Assessment
The overall goal of WP 5, led by ARMINES, is to evaluate and compare the potential environmental, economic and social impacts of energy production from microalgal biogas.
NTU scientist develops a novel method
An international team investigate the link between time-varying interaction networks and community stability in natural systems.
Dynamic modeling for the life cycle sustainability assessment of microalgal bioenergy
The performance of PRODIGIO developments should be evaluated according to environmental economic and social criteria to ensure the improvement capacity of early-warning systems compared to systems without such technology.
Forensic chemical fingerprinting of bioreactor performance
Within PRODIGIO, we use chemical information to detect early-stage changes in the biological processes and prospective failure of the PRODIGIO bioreactors.
ICM-CSIC visits Universidad de Almería (UAL) facilities
On November the 24th, a team from the Institute of Marine Sciences (ICM-CSIC) in Barcelona (Spain) visited the facilities of University of Almería (UAL) in Almería (Spain), where the experimental facilities for microalgal cultivation are located.
Reconstructing large interaction networks from empirical time series data
Reconstructing interactions from observational data is a critical need for investigating natural biological networks, wherein network dimensionality is usually high.
