Evaluation of Biomass Production and Wastewater Nutrient Removal Using Microalgae: Sustainable Strategy to CO2 Bio-Fixation and Bioenergy Production Approach
Nowadays, the replacement of renewable energies such as biofuels is one of the main priorities in environmental programming and investments. This study is based on sustainable strategy towards integrating algal biomass generation as a green feedstock with wastewater treatment, CO2 bio-fixation, and bioenergy production. Therefore, the performance of Trichormus variabilis in ...
متن کاملShort-Term Effect of Nutrient Availability and Rainfall Distribution on Biomass Production and Leaf Nutrient Content of Savanna Tree Species
Changes in land use may lead to increased soil nutrient levels in many ecosystems (e.g. due to intensification of agricultural fertilizer use). Plant species differ widely in their response to differences in soil nutrients, and for savannas it is uncertain how this nutrient enrichment will affect plant community dynamics. We set up a large controlled short-term experiment in a semi-arid savanna...
متن کاملThe Seeding and Cultivation of a Tropical Species of Filamentous Ulva for Algal Biomass Production
Filamentous species of Ulva are ideal for cultivation because they are robust with high growth rates and maintained across a broad range of environments. Temperate species of filamentous Ulva are commercially cultivated on nets which can be artificially 'seeded' under controlled conditions allowing for a high level of control over seeding density and consequently biomass production. This study ...
متن کاملAnnual Production and Production: Biomass Ratios for Three Species of Stream Trout in Lake Superior Tributaries
—We made estimates of annual production of stream trout in two Lake Superior tributaries in northeastern Minnesota in 1977-1978. The Caribou River (total alkalinity, 34 mg/L as CaCO3) drains pan of the north shore of Lake Superior in an igneous rock geology. The Blackhoof River (total alkalinity, 83 mg/L) drains glacial drift and lake clay at the western end of Lake Superior. Annual production ...
متن کاملSoil Nutrient Heterogeneity Alters Competition between Two Perennial Grass Species
Differences in root foraging behavior between species have been well documented, but the effects of these differences on belowground competitive ability are only beginning to be studied. Here we report the results of a competition experiment in homogeneous and heterogeneous soils between two species that differ in their ability to acquire nutrients from patchy environments. The perennial grasse...
