Evaluation of Algae-Based Biodiesel Production Topologies via Inherent Safety Index (ISI)
(Applied Sciences, 2021-03-23)
Increasing energy needs have led to soaring fossil fuel consumption, which has caused several environmental problems. These environmental aspects along with the energy demand have motivated the search for new energy systems. ...
Enhancement of Metabolite Production in High-Altitude Microalgal Strains by Optimized C/N/P Ratio
(Applied Sciences, 2022-07-04)
: This study evaluated the role of C/N/P in the increase in the synthesis of carbohydrates,
proteins, and lipids in two high-mountain strains of algae (Chlorella sp. UFPS019 and Desmodesmus sp.
UFPS021). Three carbon ...
The Circular Economy Approach to Improving CNP Ratio in Inland Fishery Wastewater for Increasing Algal Biomass Production
(Water, 2022-02-26)
In this work, the capacity of wastewater from an inland fishery system in Colombia (Norte
de Santander) was tested as culture medium for Chlorella sp. and Scenedesmus sp. Due to insufficient
N and P concentrations for ...
Application of Chlorella sp. and Scenedesmus sp. in the Bioconversion of Urban Leachates into Industrially Relevant Metabolites
(Applied Sciences, 2022-02-26)
: This paper explores the ability of Chlorella sp. and Scenedesmus sp. to convert landfill
leachates into usable metabolites. Different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5, and 10% v/v) of leachate coupled
with an inorganic carbon ...
Evaluation of the Light/Dark Cycle and Concentration of Tannery Wastewater in the Production of Biomass and Metabolites of Industrial Interest from Microalgae and Cyanobacteria
(Water, 2022-01-25)
The tanning industry transforms animal skins into leather and produces liquid effluents
with a high organic and inorganic pollutant load. This work evaluated the effect of the tannery
wastewater (TWW) concentration and ...
