1. 1. Comparison of UV-C and Vacuum- UV induced AOT on the acute mortality of microalgae.

   University essay from KTH/Mark- och vattenteknik

   Author : Eric McGivney; [2013]
   Keywords : Advanced oxidation technology; vacuum UV; UV-C; titanium dioxide; algae; Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata; Tetraselmis suecica; ballast water treatment;

   Abstract : Advanced oxidation technology (AOT) has been used to destroy microorganisms in ballast water by breaking down the cell membranes. The primary objective of this study was to determine the effects of a ballast water treatment system that uses a combination of UV-C (λ=254 nm), Vacuum-UV (VUV; λ=185 nm) and photocatalytic titanium dioxide (TiO2) on a freshwater algae, Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, and a marine algae, Tetraselmis suecica.

3. 2. Greenalgae as a substrate for biogas production - cultivation and biogas potentials

   University essay from Tema vatten i natur och samhälle

   Author : Yang Liu; [2010]
   Keywords : Anaerobic digestion; micro-algae cultivations; N-limiting; thermo-lime pretreatment;

   Abstract : Algae is regarded as a good potential substrate for biogas production, due to high cells productivity, low cellulose and zero lignin content. Two parts were included in this study: first, cultivations of micro-algae (Chlorella sorokiniana and Tetraselmis suecica) at two different nitrate concentrations, also the effect of addition of CO2 on algae grow was investigated in this first part.
