Abstract

Microalgae cultivation in raceway ponds represents a significant advancement in the bioeconomy , offering a sustainable solution to the environmental challenges posed by industrialization and population growth. This review explores the historical development, current practices, and future potential of microalgae mass culturing, with a particular focus on the hydrodynamic considerations in raceway ponds. The cultivation process, from early-stage batch cultures to modern raceway pond systems, highlights the importance of optimizing operational parameters such as light, temperature, nutrients, pH, and salinity . The article also examines the challenges of contamination, mixing dynamics, and the effects of shear stress on microalgae growth. Recent advancements in raceway pond design, including improved agitation mechanisms and hydrodynamic models , are discussed to enhance biomass productivity and cultivation efficiency. This review identifies current methodologies, constraints, and areas requiring further research to advance the field of microalgae cultivation in open pond systems, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable bioeconomy.

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.
