Effects of feast-famine nutrient regimes on wastewater algal biofuel communities
Microalgae accumulate lipids in response to nutrient deprivation, and these lipids are a biodiesel fuel stock.Algal acupatch cultivation with secondary wastewater effluent is one proposed platform for biofuel production, which provides nutrients to algae while further polishing wastewater effluent.Algal bioreactors were tested using a feast-famine
