Within the framework of scientific and innovative work at the Department of Ecobiotechnology and Biotechnology, research works financed by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine were performed:
Photobioelectrochemical conversion of waste and bio-raw materials to produce electricity and energy2013 – 2014.
State registration number of the topic – 0113U001650, NTUU “KPI” – 2661-p.
Scientific adviser – Ph.D., prof. Kuzminsky EV
The essence of development:
According to the results of the research, the newest technological schemes of bioelectrochemical conversion of waste and bio-raw materials will be developed with the production of electric energy and energy carriers, which combine different biotechnological approaches in the implementation of energy conversion processes using microorganisms, algae and eukaryotic organisms. So far, only a few components of the technology have been developed, whereas the combination of them and the development of integrated bioelectrochemical systems for the transformation of energy will be the first and no analogues in the world.
Biotechnological production of energy and energy from waste of various origin2011-2012
State registration number of the topic – 0111U000672, NTUU “KPI” – 2444-p.
Scientific adviser – Ph.D., prof. Kuzminsky EV
The essence of development, the main results:
Anaerobic-aerobic technology of purification of highly concentrated wastewater with associated biotechnological production of electricity and hydrogen has been developed. The technology differs from the existing ones in that it is implemented in the system of bioreactors with the creation of hydrobiocenoses of microorganisms in them, organized in a bioconveyor and immobilized on synthetic media with a developed surface area. In addition, at the anaerobic stage of purification, a bioelectrochemical system is built in, which enables the realization of electricity and energy through microorganisms and their enzyme systems. This makes it possible to create a competitive combined system for receiving energy and energy from waste for domestic and industrial wastewater treatment plants.
Biotechnology of wastewater treatment of various origins with simultaneous generation of electricity2009 – 2010
State registration number of the topic – 0109V000974, NTUU “KPI” – 2264-p
Scientific adviser – Ph.D., prof. Kuzminsky EV
The essence of development, the main results:
A multi-stage anaerobic-aerobic sewage treatment technology was developed and implemented on the treatment plants of Slavutsk Malt Plant in Slavuta. 2-5 times purification, reduce the likelihood of swelling of free-floating activated sludge, provide higher quality of purified water, increase the concentration b yomasses. Due to the use of anaerobic process and bioconveyor, there is a reduction in air consumption and, accordingly, electricity by 2-3 times, as well as a decrease in sludge growth (30% – 50%). The developed biotechnology is ecologically safe – it has little impact on the environment.
