Device failure may result in catastrophic fish loss, requiring power backup systems to mitigate risk in case of power outages. Because these systems must be dependable and many suitable locations are remote, off-grid solar photovoltaic (PV) systems with battery storage have been considered since they eliminate need for utility power. Such systems can be hard to size and expensive. This study modeled system requirements using an energy balance to determine whether systems could withstand varying loads based on climatological conditions. Sizing was iterative, with battery storage and panel size increasing until the model predicted continuous power was provided year-round. This study found failure events were clustered over multiple days in winter. Therefore, it determined undersized systems were suitable if there was no stocking in these months. Further work found an integrated generator backup system would decrease necessary system size. Likewise, substitution of continuous motor loadings with variable speed motors operated based on need may further decrease system demand. The presented modelling approach has broad implications for feasibility of IPR systems, providing reduced startup costs and possibilities for greater implementation of this novel technology.

Smith Dr. Joseph Dvorak Director of Thesis Dr. Donald Colliver Director of Graduate Studies 04/20/2021 Date DEDICATION To the people of Hopkins County and to the rural people of Kentucky and the United States at large, who shape my worldview and bring inspiration to my life daily. I had the good fortune to come of age as a rural person, and have seen first-hand that, though we may be but little, we are fierce. In all that I do, I remember my roots. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The following thesis, while an individual work, benefited from the insights and direction of several people. First, my Thesis Chair, Dr. Joseph Dvorak, exemplifies the high-quality scholarship to which I aspire. Starting as an undergraduate and moving into my graduate school career, he trusted in me and my abilities as a researcher and granted me the opportunity to thrive in my learning. To say that I am grateful would be an understatement. Next, I wish to thank the complete Thesis Committee: Dr. Tiffany Messer, Dr. Donald Colliver, and Dr. Kenneth Semmens. Each individual provided insights that guided and challenged my thinking, substantially improving the finished product. In addition to the technical and instrumental assistance above, I received equally important assistance from family and friends. My partner, Harper Oglesby, provided on- going support throughout the thesis process, as well as technical assistance critical for completing the project in a timely manner. I also thank my parents, Gary and Melissa Smith, for providing significant support and motivation to me throughout my studies, without which, this would not have been possible. Finally, I wish to thank the many friends I brought into my inner circle along the way toward the completion of this degree. From my tight circle of former roommates to the executive teams of Alpha Epsilon and the BAE Graduate League of Students, I have accrued a large support network, which I have leaned on heavily in my time at UK. In addition, I would like to thank all of those from both the University of Kentucky and Kentucky State University who pitched in where they were needed to assist me in the completion of this project. Namely, I thank Cynthia Arnold, James Brown, John Kelso, and Dawson Armstrong for providing their timely and instructive comments and iii evaluation at every stage of the thesis process, allowing me to complete this project on schedule. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ........................................................................................................................... iii LIST OF FIGURES ................................................................................................................................... ix LIST OF ADDITIONAL FILES .................................................................................................................... xi CHAPTER 1.

    BIOLOGY 100 Munyawera, James University of Rwanda Contribution to the Optimization of Algal Production as Biomass for Generating Biofuel Clement Ahishakiye ,University of Rwanda Birungi Martha Mwiza, University of Rwanda Algae are photosynthetic organism including macro and microalgae species and they mostly live in moist environment. Algae especially microalgae species are important due to high nutritional content mainly oil that can be used for production of biofuel as an alternative to petroleum products. Biofuel is a fuel produced through biological processing of photosynthetic matter. Aim of this study was to identify the algal species present in sample collected from Rwamamba marsh land and to determine their optimal growth conditions for biomass production. in order to produce biofuels in Rwanda. The isolation of algae strains was performed by using appropriate culture media and the identification by phenotypic characteristics based by microscopic observation. During the biomass production, a culture has been supplied with CO2 from a reaction produced by calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid, another one was remained naturally with no CO2 supp. The effect of pH (6.5, 7.5, 8.0) on the growth of algae species was also evaluated. In the samples collected from different sites. Two different algal species were identified namely Chlorella sp. and Botryococcus sp. The result showed that Chlorella sp. grows better than Botryococcus sp. the optimum growth temperature for isolation was around 25oC. The culture of Chlorella sp in the medium with additional CO2 grow better than when there is no CO2 supply. The both Chlorella and Botryococcus species were grows best at the pH 7.5 and 8.0.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Raceway-based production of microalgae for possible use in making biodiesel A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biotechnology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand Sadia Tahir 2014 Abstract Oils from microalgae are of interest as a potential feedstock for producing renewable transport fuels including gasoline, diesel, biodiesel and jet fuel. For producing feedstock oils, an alga must be capable of being grown easily in readily available seawater and have a high productivity of biomass and oil. This study explored the biomass and lipid production potential of the microalga Chlorella vulgaris in seawater media, as a potential producer of feedstock oils. The alga was grown photoautotrophically under various conditions in 2 L Duran bottles and a pilot scale (138 L) raceway system. Initially, eight species of microalgae of different classes were assessed under nutrient sufficient growth conditions for the production of biomass and lipids in 2 L Duran bottles. Two of the promising species (C. vulgaris and Nannochloropsis salina) were then further evaluated extensively under various conditions (i.e. salinity stress, different levels of nitrogen in growth media, continuous light and light-dark cycling). Based on these assessments C. vulgaris stood out as the best alga for further detailed study. C. vulgaris was evaluated for biomass production and lipid production.
