Goals
Add the higher level goal of your project.
- To learn advanced engineering principles and communicate the learnings to others
- To produce 10 grams of Biocrude and fractionate it
Description
Give a brief description of the problem you're trying to solve and how you'll do it.
- Using algae as a renewable biomass source, I'll design and build an end-to-end process that cultivates algae, harvests the biomass, converts it to bio-crude through pyrolysis/methanolysis, and fractionates the resulting oil into its component parts.
Major requirements & deliverables
List out stakeholder requirements or project deliverables.
- Production of 10g of fractionated bio-crude
- YouTube video (10-15 minutes) documenting the design, build, and processing
- Functioning bioreactor system with growth monitoring
- Automated harvesting and biomass processing system
- Thermal conversion chamber (pyrolysis/methanolysis)
- Fractionation column with separation capabilities
- Comprehensive documentation in Notion
- CAD models and technical drawings of all components
- Process flow diagrams and control system architecture
- Safety protocols and standard operating procedures
- Portfolio materials demonstrating multiple engineering disciplines
