  1. 1. INFLUENCE OF TEMPERATURE ON BIOMASS AND GROWTH RATE OF BENTHIC DIATOMS

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Evelina Hansson; [2023-06-21]
    Keywords : benthic; diatoms; cultivation; thermal performance; photosynthetic pigments;

    Abstract : Temperature has a significant impact on structure and abundance of microalgal community as well as on physiology (Sheehan et al., 2020). READ MORE

  3. 2. Production of natural pigments from A. platensis grown on wastewater from local treatment facility.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Hana Faulds; [2023]
    Keywords : Cyanobacteria; pigments; microalgae; wastewater treatment; biotechnology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Although microalgae have been considered for the biological treatment of wastewater since the 1950’s, their potential to efficiently remove pollutants from various streams remains largely untapped and is yet to be utilized at large scale. The production of algal biomass and extraction of high-value compounds has, however, become increasingly popular with large scale farms and biorefineries around the world producing many promising alternatives to petroleum-based products and processes.

  4. 3. A case study of estimating Algal biomass productivity from wastewater treatment facilities in the state of Texas and possible use

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Gopi Raju Makkena; [2022]
    Keywords : Microalgae; Rotating Algal Biofilm RAB ; Flash Hydrolysis; Algal biomass; Biofertilizer; Mikroalger; roterande algbiofilm RAB ; flashhydrolys; algbiomassa; biogödsel;

    Abstract : För att hålla vattendragen och miljön rena, renas avloppsvattnet för att nå ett visst mått innan det släpps ut. Vi gjorde en fallstudie för att utvärdera metoderna som används för att behandla avloppsvatten i tre steg: primär, sekundär och tertiär i delstaten Texas, USA. READ MORE

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Anargyros Katsogridakis; [2021]
    Keywords : Embedded systems; Microcontrollers; Harmful algal bloom; Climate change; chl-a fluorescence; Inbyggda system; mikrokontroller; skadlig algblomning; klimatförändring; chl-a-fluorescens;

    Abstract : Over the last decades, the effects of climate change have become increasingly evident across natural environments. Apart from other areas, climate change poses a serious threat on water quality. READ MORE

  6. 5. The POTENTIAL OF MICROALGAE TECHNOLOGY AT THE CEMENT INDUSTRY ON GOTLAND

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Vita Xu; [2021]
    Keywords : Sustainable Development; microalgae technology; algal biofuel; carbon capture; energy production;

    Abstract : Due to the increasing climate change concerns, biofuels have attracted more attention in the energy field as potential alternative energy sources. Particularly, microalgal biofuel has stood out because of its higher fuel yield potential and lower water and land demand than terrestrial biomass. READ MORE
