Screening microalgae isolated from urban storm- and wastewater systems as feedstock for biofuel
Exploiting microalgae as feedstock for biofuel production is a growing field of research and application, but there remain challenges related to industrial viability and economic sustainability. A solution to the water requirements of industrial-scale production is the use of wastewater as a growth...
