Effects of light intensity on growth and lipid production in microalgae grown in wastewater

Background Cultivation of microalgae in wastewater could significantly contribute to wastewater treatment, biodiesel production, and thus the transition to renewable energy. However, more information on effects of environmental factors, including light intensity, on their growth and composition (par...
