“…However, as a byproduct of the HTL process, nutrient-rich aqueous phase liquid (APL) is also generated. Several microalgae strains were found to effectively treat and recycle the nutrients from the APL after appropriately diluting the APL in the growth medium [51,52].…”

The treatment of different types of wastewater by physicochemical or biological (non-microalgal) methods could often be either inefficient or energy-intensive. Microalgae are ubiquitous microscopic organisms, which thrive in water bodies that contain the necessary nutrients. Wastewaters are typically contaminated with nitrogen, phosphorus, and other trace elements, which microalgae require for their cell growth. In addition, most of the microalgae are photosynthetic in nature, and these organisms do not require an organic source for their proliferation, although some strains could utilize organics both in the presence and absence of light. Therefore, microalgal bioremediation could be integrated with existing treatment methods or adopted as the single biological method for efficiently treating wastewater. This review paper summarized the mechanisms of pollutants removal by microalgae, microalgal bioremediation potential of different types of wastewaters, the potential application of wastewater-grown microalgal biomass, existing challenges, and the future direction of microalgal application in wastewater treatment.

“…The hydrothermally digested biomass and waste effluent can be used for the cultivation of microalgae. For example, Das et al (2020) investigated the utilization of hydrothermal liquefaction-derived liquid phase as a growth medium for the semi-continuous cultivation of Tetraselmis sp. They used 50% of hydrothermal liquefaction derived liquid phase with the combination of medium and cultivated in indoor PBR and outdoor raceway tank in three successive cycles.…”

Urbanization is a revolutionary and necessary step for the development of nations. However, with development emanates its drawback i.e., generation of a huge amount of wastewater. The existence of diverse types of nutrient loads and toxic compounds in wastewater can reduce the pristine nature of the ecosystem and adversely affects human and animal health. The conventional treatment system reduces most of the chemical contaminants but their removal efficiency is low. Thus, microalgae-based biological wastewater treatment is a sustainable approach for the removal of nutrient loads from wastewater. Among various microalgae, Tetraselmis sp. is a robust strain that can remediate industrial, municipal, and animal-based wastewater and reduce significant amounts of nutrient loads and heavy metals. The produced biomass contains lipids, carbohydrates, and pigments. Among them, carbohydrates and lipids can be used as feedstock for the production of bioenergy products. Moreover, the usage of a photobioreactor (PBR) system improves biomass production and nutrient removal efficiency. Thus, the present review comprehensively discusses the latest studies on Tetraselmis sp. based wastewater treatment processes, focusing on the use of different bioreactor systems to improve pollutant removal efficiency. Moreover, the applications of Tetraselmis sp. biomass, advancement and research gap such as immobilized and co-cultivation have also been discussed. Furthermore, an insight into the harvesting of Tetraselmis biomass, effects of physiological, and nutritional parameters for their growth has also been provided. Thus, the present review will broaden the outlook and help to develop a sustainable and feasible approach for the restoration of the environment.

“…The most cultivated microalgae are Skeletonema, Chaetoceros, Thalassiosira, Tetraselmis, Phaeodactylum, Monochrisis, Pavlova, and Isochrysis, which are targeted for their nutritional quality (Kaparapu, 2018;Cordier et al, 2020b;Muller-feuga, 2000). The culture of microalgae can be performed according to batch, semicontinuous, or continuous cultures in photobioreactors (Das et al, 2020;Amaral et al, 2020;Sánchez-Bayo et al, 2020). This method is made possible by controlling parameters such as culture time, the level of dissolved carbon dioxide, or even the quantities of inoculum introduced when transplanting the cultures.…”
