Technical Name Using microalgae to establish a sustainable aviation fuel production platform for carbon reduction and energy production
Project Operator National Cheng Kung University
Project Host 陳俊延
Summary
This technology is to construct the microalgae carbon fixation and oil production system, which mainly includes a 10-ton microalgae carbon fixation system and a 100-liter algae fermentation system. After collecting the produced algae, they are hydrolyzed by biological method to produce biofuel source. This technology is based on two microalgae to create a carbon circulation platform. We will also cooperate with FORMOSA SMART ENERGY and airline industry to build the first SAF factory in Taiwan.
Scientific Breakthrough
1. The first dual microalgae series system that can reduce carbon emissions and has high oil production
 
 2. The first 10-ton high-efficiency microalgae carbon fixation dual system in the academic community (tubular + pipe line)
 
 3. At a gas flow rate of 0.05vvm (containing 12% CO2), the daily CO2 removal capacity reaches 90%
 
 3. Cooperate with the industry to develop high-oil microalgae fermentation technology. As the result, the biomass is reaching 90g/L ,and the oil content is about 45% (500 L)
Industrial Applicability
1. SAF is an international trend, and investment in development is imperative, and international sources are in short supply
 
 2. CPC and FPG have also begun to develop in the direction of SAF
 
 3. It is the first domestic academic community to work with the industry (FPG and EVA Air) to conduct commercial development of SAF sources, with a complete connection from the parts of technology, production, and customers.
 
 4. The long-term goal is to achieve an annual production of 20,000 tons of SAF
