Microalgae are well known for its high photosynthetic activity and ability to accumulate large amount of lipids within their cells. Compost fertilizers are derived from manure or food wastes which contain high concentration of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphate. Hence, this study was to investigate the potential of compost nutrient derived from different feedstockto grow microalgae and to optimize the biomass production from microalgae via batchcultivation method. The optimized parameter were such as pH, amount of nutrient added andtypes of compost used. Chlorella vulgaris was favored to grow under the condition of 0.04L/Lof chicken compost added in and pH 3, 6and 7. To this extent, this will able to reduce theenergy usage and cost saving.Keywords: chlorella vulgaris; compost; batch culture; biomass. |
