TLDR
In this article, microalgae is used as a sustainable treatment system by integrating the wastewater treatment with bioenergy recovery, transforming this technology to real-time, but it is difficult to implement in practice.
Abstract
Phycoremediation encompasses microalgae as a sustainable treatment system by integrating the wastewater treatment with bioenergy recovery. However, transforming this technology to real time...

Growth of Chlorella pyrenoidosa in wastewater from cassava ethanol fermentation

TL;DR: In a cycle tubular photobioreactor, Chlorella pyrenoidosa was cultured in undiluted wastewater from ethanol fermentation using cassava powder as raw material and showed that the optimum cultivation conditions were initial pH of 6.0, temperature at 27°C, continuous illumination at 3,000 lux, and cycle speed of 110 ml min−1.

Indigenous algae for local bioresource production: Phycoprospecting

TL;DR: Recent efforts in phycoprospecting of local habitats revealed a diversity of algae with significant lipid content, suggesting that selecting indigenous algae with intrinsic characteristics amenable to bioresource production and waste mitigation is the most sustainable path forward for widespread algae-based bioresources development.

Multistage continuous cultivation of blue-green alga spirulina maxima in the flat tank photobioreactors with recycle

TL;DR: In this paper, Spirulina maxima was continuously cultivated in four 64-liter flat tank photobioreactors in cascade, under continuous 30 klx fluorescent light and nonaseptic condition, in an industrial grade synthetic medium which bubbled with atmospheric air.

Influence of light intensity and tannery wastewater concentration on biomass production and nutrient removal by microalgae Scenedesmus sp.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used tannery wastewater as alternative cultivation medium for microalgae biomass production aiming to treat this effluent, and the results showed that the adaptation of micro-algae for this nutrient source was effective and showed maximum biomass concentration (0.90 g/L−1) and maximum removal of ammoniacal nitrogen (85.63%), phosphorus (96.78%), COD (80.33%), and light intensity of 182.5
