Abstract: |
In this study, a strain of Scendesmus dimorphus with strong anti-fouling property was selected to investigate the effects of light qualities on the growth of Scendesmus dimorphus to treat swine wastewater. The growth of the algae based on standard concentrations of ammonia nitrogen and copper in swine wastewater was studied. The results showed that the growth of algal biomass in white light was better than that in blue and red light, with biomass productivity of 0.21, 0.04 g·L-1·d-1, and 0.03 g·L-1·d-1, respectively. The growth of the algae at low ammonia nitrogen concentration of 50 mg·L-1 was similar to that of the control, with biomass productivity of 0.20 g·L-1·d-1 and 0.18 g·L-1·d-1, respectively. However, the growth of the algae was influenced by high concentrations of ammonia nitrogen(500 mg·L-1 and 2000 mg·L-1) with biomass productivity of 0.12 g·L-1·d-1 and 0.11 g·L-1·d-1, respectively. In addition, the growth of Scendesmus dimorphus was influenced by copper, with biomass productivity of 0.18, 0.15 g·L-1·d-1, and 0.13 g·L-1·d-1 at copper concentrations of 0.5, 1.0 mg·L-1, and 2.0 mg·L-1, respectively. The algal cell can be resistant to high concentrations of copper when ammonia nitrogen co-exists in the medium. |
