た。[0005] One of the major problems in efficiently culturing photosynthetic microorganisms is the mutual light shielding effect of cells. The light that enters the culture tank is absorbed by the cells and used as an energy source for photosynthesis.However, when the cell concentration increases, sufficient light is not supplied to the cells that exist deep in the culture solution, and the overall light A phenomenon in which the energy use efficiency is reduced is observed. This is the so-called mutual shielding effect. In order to overcome this drawback, a highly efficient photosynthetic microorganism culturing apparatus including a plate-type culturing tank (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-150974)
In the present invention, a new culture method has been devised, focusing on the physiological requirements of photosynthetic microorganisms.

率が改善される。以下、その内容を説明する。[0006] Photosynthetic microorganisms have the ability to change the photosynthetic pigment content in cells according to the given light environment. For example, the green alga Dunaliella salina is known to acclimate to intense light and reduce the content of antenna chlorophyll, and to exhibit high photosynthetic activity (ie, high growth rate) under intense light. On the other hand, the maximum photosynthetic activity decreases in cells that have been adapted to weak light, but the amount of antenna chlorophyll is high, and photosynthesis is performed using weak light efficiently. FIG. 1 shows the photosynthetic activity of the high- and low-light-adapted cells. The horizontal axis represents light intensity, and the vertical axis represents photosynthetic oxygen generation activity. As shown in the figure, when the light is weak (160 μmol m -2 s -1 or less in this figure), the photosynthetic oxygen generation rate is higher in the weakly light-adapted cells than in the strongly light-adapted cells. In terms of light intensity, the photosynthetic cells have higher photosynthetic rates and higher maximum photosynthetic rates. The light energy utilization efficiency is improved by combining the highly light-adapted cells and the weakly light-adapted cells using the difference in reactivity to light intensity. Hereinafter, the contents will be described.

られる。[0007] A plurality of plate-type culture vessels described in JP-A-10-150974, that is, a plurality of culture vessels in which at least both sides are made of a light-transmitting transparent material and the distance between the both sides is approximately 2 cm or less. Prepare (FIG. 2, example of two plate culture tanks), and culture tanks A and B in order from the one near the light source. The thickness is the same or A is thinner than B, for example A
Is 1 cm and B is 2 cm. When photosynthetic microorganisms are continuously cultured in both culture vessels, the cells grown in the culture vessel A are sufficiently supplied with light, so that the cells acclimate to strong light. Meanwhile, the culture tank
Since the light is blocked by the cells of A, the cells in the culture tank B are exposed to weak light and cause weak light acclimation. Separately, a culture tank C (for example, 3 cm thick) having a thickness obtained by adding the thickness of the culture tank A and the thickness of the culture tank B is prepared. In the culture tank C, weakly light-adapted cells can be obtained because the average amount of light is low. In cells in culture tank A supplied with sufficient light energy, high photosynthetic activity, high cell growth rate and low light shielding (low cell concentration,
In addition, high efficiency of photosynthesis (= proliferation) using weak light was achieved in the culture tank B in the culture tank B because the antenna chlorophyll content was low.
Is obtained. That is, in the culture tank A, the photosynthetic rate indicated by the upper curve in FIG. 1 is obtained, and in the culture tank B, the photosynthetic rate indicated by the lower curve is obtained. On the other hand, in the culture tank C, as in the case of the culture tank B, the cells are uniformly weakly light-adapted, and even when exposed to strong light, only the photosynthesis of the lower curve in FIG. 1 can be obtained. Therefore, the culture tank
Comparing the productivity of A + B with that of the culture tank C, the culture tank A + B has higher photosynthetic activity and, consequently, algal cells or substance productivity.

である。For convenience of explanation, the culture tanks A and B are treated as separate products. However, the same productivity can be improved simply by dividing the culture tank C with a transparent material. Even if it is divided into three or three sections, productivity can be improved. A transparent thin film is sufficient for the material used for the compartment, and the material cost required for manufacturing the culture tank can be reduced. A typical culture tank thickness is 1 to 2 c, close to the light source.
m, 2 to 5 cm suitable for objects far from the light source, but the appropriate thickness varies depending on the type of photosynthetic microorganism used. Continuous culture may be performed independently in both culture vessels, or the overflow from culture vessel A may be led to culture vessel B. Examples of photosynthetic microorganisms cultured in such a culture tank include photosynthetic bacteria, single-cell microalgae, filamentous microalgae, single-celled cyanobacteria, and filamentous cyanobacteria. Further, as the medium used for these cultures, any medium that has been devised for microalgae can be used. Specific examples include BG-11, MC, ESM, PE
S, SOT, MDM, MBM, etc. Light-dependent culture in which a carbon source other than carbon dioxide is added to the medium is also possible.

The height and width of the culture tank can be freely designed based on the capacity required for culture. Neither the light source nor the light intensity is specified. Further, FIG. 2 shows the plate culture tank standing upright, but in the case of using sunlight outdoors, a plate culture tank that is inclined according to the latitude of the installation location may be used. . Further, in outdoor mass culture, a plurality of plate-type culture tank sets (for example, culture tanks A and B) can be provided at appropriate intervals. The upper part of the culture tank can be left open without a cover, but if sterile culture is to be performed, the lid should be closed and sealed, and 5-10% hydrogen peroxide should be placed in the culture tank beforehand. It is also possible to introduce and sterilize.
