Abstract:
This study investigates the potential of microalgae in the sustainable remediation of dairy effluent, emphasizing the generation of valuable biomolecules. Dairy effluent, rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and trace metals, serves as an excellent medium for cultivating microalgae, which play a dual role as bioremediators and producers of compounds such as lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates. The study focuses on autochthonous microalgal strains isolated from dairy effluent, exploring their capacity for waste-to-bioproducts transformation.
