MICROALGAE BIOMASS PRODUCTION BASED ON WASTEWATER FROM DAIRY INDUSTRY

Potential Production of Biofuel from Microalgae Biomass Produced in Wastewater

Pollution reduction and electricity production from dairy industry wastewater with microbial fuel cell

Taguchi L9 orthogonal array was implemented to select optimum values of process parameters and to attain the maximum removal of pollutants and power generation from dairy industry wastewater using double chambered salt bridge microbial fuel cell. The maximum chemical oxygen demand reduction, current, voltage, power, current density and power density in double chambered salt bridge microbial fue...

Isolation of microalgae with potential for integrated biomass production and nutrient removal from wastewater

Abstract The present study firstly investigates the variations of microalgae in the constructed wetland. Then one of the potential microalgal species was isolated and cultured in autotrophic and mixotrophic growth to compare the performance on biomass production and to evaluate the ability of wastewater treatment and simultaneous biodiesel production. Scenedesmus sp. was an abundant strain in t...

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 ...
