The oil chlorella cultivation and biogas slurry treatment were combined. The biogas slurry provided water and nutrient for growing chlorella, at the same time, harmless treatment of biogas slurry was realized. This paper cultivated 4 species of oil chlorella in the mixed medium of biogas slurry and green algae medium (the volume ratios were 1 : 9, 1 : 3, 1 : 1 and 3 : 1, respectively), and compared their oil productivity to select the best oil chlorella species and the optimal culture medium.

Article Synopsis
  • - Analysis of copper, iron, zinc, and manganese in flaxseed was conducted using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) following microwave-assisted digestion, comparing two measurement modes (Standard and KED) for effectiveness.
  • - A valid detection mode was chosen for each element, and the study included a detailed uncertainty evaluation based on established guidelines (JJF1059-1999) to identify and assess the main factors influencing measurement uncertainty.
  • - Results indicated that the levels of Cu, Fe, Zn, and Mn in flaxseed were accurately determined, providing valuable reference data for future evaluations of uncertainty in measuring these microelements using ICP-MS.
