A mathematical model of microalgal growth in light‐limited chemostat culture
Abstract
A mathematical model for light‐limited growth of a continuous microalgal culture is proposed. Average light intensity inside the photobioreactor was calculated, taking light attenuation by algae into account. The biomass absorption coefficient was determined by means of two new parameters, the pigment‐free biomass, YB, and the total pigment absorption, Yp (absorption coefficient normalized to total pigment content). The model reproduced the steady states reached and the dynamic behaviour of the system when the dilution rate was changed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
