Article Synopsis
  • * High levels of ammonia and copper in ASW were found to hinder microalgae growth, but the introduction of 10% CO helped to mitigate these negative effects, allowing for better microalgal growth at lower dilution ratios.
  • * Overall, the optimal growth conditions in diluted ASW led to significant biomass production and removal of organic compounds, with the highest lipid production found in ASW using water submerging, making these lipids potential candidates for biodiesel production

Article Synopsis
  • Mixing organic wastewaters like molasses, alcohol, and glycerol with anaerobic soybean wastewater can boost microalgae biomass production and nutrient recycling.
  • The optimal carbon-nitrogen ratios for these mixtures were found to be 7:1, 5:1, and 10:1, leading to biomass increases of 60.4%, 31.3%, and 68.7% respectively.
  • This study also showed significant removal efficiencies of organics (54.8-62.4%), ammonia nitrogen (79.5-99.1%), and phosphorus (49.3-61.5%), while enhancing lipid production and fatty acid saturation in the microalgae.

Application of porous polymeric materials is severely limited by their ultralow thermal conductivities. Herein, by promoting the formation of thermal conduction pathways, we fabricated open-cellular structured polyethylene/hexagonal boron nitride hybrid thermal conductors via melt compounding plus salt leaching. The structural analyses indicate that the inclusion of hBN can enhance the open-cell level of resultant materials.

Anaerobic wastewater potentially was an ideal medium for cultivating microalgae. The coupled effect of ammonium, temperature and pH on lipids accumulation was a core issue during algal culture using anaerobic wastewater. Therefore, their combined effects on Chlorella pyrenoidosa culture and lipids accumulation in anaerobic effluent were investigated.
