Using Algal Biomass as a Fertilizer

2018
Algae can be used in a variety of wastewater systems to capture nutrients while fixing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. I conducted field trials at three locations in Oregon with both corn and potato crops to assess the agronomic value and environmental impact of using the resulting algal biomass as a fertilizer.

Algal biomass anaerobic biodegradability

Journal of Applied Phycology, 2012
We conducted a series of biodegradation studies using microalgae (Arthrospira maxima and Nannochloropsis sp.) and macroalgae (Gelidium corneum and Cladophora glomerata) to elucidate algal biodegradability in wastewater sludge under anaerobic conditions. Algal biodegradability was evaluated according to ASTM D5210-92. The results indicate that A. maxima
