Microalgae-basedindustry is seeking to maximize its overall economic outlook by diversifying thelist of recoverable products from biomass harvests under the realm of the biorefineryconcept. Notably, a recent study has demonstrated the effectiveness of diluteacid hydrolysis in recovering fermentable monosugars from defatted biomass aswell as improving the quality of left-over residual biomass as a filler materialin the fabrication of polymeric composites. Herein, hydrolysates recovered usingtwo acids were investigated with an aim of utilizing them as a sole growth substratefor the production of Chlorella sp. The results indicated a high growthof the microalga, while different alkaline reagents tested seemed to play animportant role in determining the growth performance. Importantly, some of the saltprecipitates observed during the neutralization could improve the quality of residualbiomass as a filler material since they are actively deployed as an additive inthe industry. |
