Abstract Microalgae cultivation offers an effective solution for bwastewater treatment, as they provide a tertiary bio-treatment coupled with production of valuable biomass, which can be further used for different purposes. Using wastewater for microalgal cultivation is beneficial for minimizing the use of water, reducing the cost of nutrient addition and removing nitrogen and phosphorus from wastewater. In Egypt, Many factories drain their industrial wastes in Nile River and its canals causing serious environmental problems, affecting negatively the stability of many aquatic ecosystems and can also cause adverse effects to human health and the environment directly or indirectly. |
