Abstract | ||
The influence of nitrogen and phosphorus of different concentrations on biomass production of the green microalga Nannochloropsis gaditana was investigated. The result revealed that there was a significant difference among nitrogen concentrations and among phosphorus concentrations in the promotion of algal biomass growth. Sodium nitrate (150 g/L) and sodium dihydrogen phosphate (10 g/L) were found to be preferred concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus with a cell growth of 71.375×106 cells/mL and 46.787×106 cells/mL, respectively. | ||
