Microalgae - A promising tool for heavy metal remediation. (2015, background): “On another stance, algae as renewable natural biomass exhibit different affinities toward different metals, and, are therefore, very important candidates, employed as biosorbent materials (Mallick, 2002; Doshi et al., 2006).”
Integrating micro-algae into wastewater treatment: A review. (2021, methodology): “Taking this into account, under continuous operation the biomass requires separation from the water prior to discharge to minimise the input of these captured nutrients into receiving systems, effectively negating the main advantage of micro-algae immobilisation (Mallick, 2002; Qureshi et al., 2005)”
The potential of sustainable algal biofuel production using wastewater resources. (2011, methodology): “wastewater (Ahluwalia and Goyal, 2007; Mallick, 2002) and therefore have potential to play an important remediation role particularly during the final (tertiary) treatment phase of wastewater.”
Algal biofuel from urban wastewater in India: Scope and challenges (2013, background): “Many species of algae grow copiously in wastewater utilising abundantly available organic carbon and inorganic nutrients (N and P) and hence play an important remediation role in efficient removal of N and P [16,17].”
