Production of a High Valued Biofertilizer From Ammonical Waste Water Using A Novel And Synergistic Phycoremediation Method.

Expansion of industrial areas increased the industrial sewerage discharge which leads to the environmental health and water pollution issues. Wastewater treatment is having much importance in recent years with the intension of reusing it. Presently with upcoming technologies in developing countries for treating wastewater is not sufficient and cost effective solution. A novel advanced method of algal culture offers an effective solution for wastewater treatment coupled with the production of potentially valuable biomass and utile water which can be used for different purposes. This invention uses cheap and efficient, ecologically safe hybrid photobioreactor for the simultaneous detoxification of effluent and advantage of this result with no pollution of hazardous substances and lesser sludge production. The present study demonstrates that the algae growth merged on effluent without sterilization in presence of sunlight and the percent elimination of nitrate (99.55%), phosphate (90.83%), B.O.D (78.32%), C.O.D (80.45%) with 95.41% increasing efficiency of D.O were evaluated. Algal biomass with high nutrients is used as a biofertilizers which provides an effective and non-polluting approach in improving the productivity of crop by both nitrogen fixation and photosynthesis. This paper is briefly underlining the environment friendly way to utilize effluent and usage of algal biofertilzer which will be applicable on laboratory and large scale treatment for ecology betterment
