Biomass Production Potential of a Wastewater Alga Chlorella vulgaris ARC 1 under Elevated Levels of CO2 and Temperature

The growth response of Chlorella vulgaris was studied under varying concentrations of carbon dioxide (ranging from 0.036 to 20%) and temperature (30, 40 and 50oC). The highest chlorophyll concentration (11 µg mL-1) and biomass (210 µg mL-1), which were 60 and 20 times more than that of C. vulg...
