Kinetics of Inorganic Carbon-Limited Freshwater Algal Growth at High pH
Researchers from US performed a study to quantify the growth and inorganic carbon utilization of mixed freshwater green algal culture at high pH. Algal cultures were supplied with different initial media inorganic carbon concentrations and maintained in a controlled environment with an initial pH of 10.3.
Characteristic and comparative studies indicated that the determined stoichiometric and kinetic parameters could be used to facilitate modelling and optimization of algal based carbon capture strategies.
