Abstract
Microalgae is a promising source of superior biomass for sustainable food sources, high value products, and 3rd generation biofuel. The main factors affecting growth, carbon fixation and biomass production of microalgae are species type, CO2 supply, nutrients, light, temperature, pH and mixing. This paper discusses the precision farming approach in microalgae biomass production using the Cellular Automata Machine modeling, i.e., Probabilistic Cellular Automata. Cellular Automata is a decentralized computing model that provides a useful platform to model the complex dynamic systems such as growth of cells. The application of this method on a large-scale microalgae production system can simulate and model the characteristics of microalgae growth and biomass. In conclusion, the Biological Lattice Gas Cellular Automaton (BIO-LGCA) has been proposed as modeling tools to obtain the optimal conditions and maximum productivity in microalgae biomass production.
