Abstract:The wastewater treatment potential of the microalga Chlorella protothecoides was investigated in the context of fish farming, and it is efficacy was further evaluated through cultivation at different inoculation levels to gauge pollutant removal efficiency. This study examines C. protothecoides for growth, nutrient removal, and biofuel potential. Climbing perch culture effluent (CPCE) mediums are employed for algal cultivation, with optical density (OD) measurements capturing growth dynamics that culminate on … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
