Insights into removal of antibiotics by selected microalgae (Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Chlorella sorokiniana, Dunaliella tertiolecta and Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata)

Andrea Hom-Diaz et al.

Summary: The increasing contamination of worldwide water with antibiotics has become a concern. Microalgae-mediated remediation is of interest due to their ability to take up nutrients and produce biomass. While the sorption of pollutants by microalgae has been widely reported, few studies have proven the biodegradation of pollutants by microalgae.

Enhanced production of microalgae-originated photosensitizer by integrating photosynthetic electrons extraction and antibiotic induction towards photocatalytic degradation of antibiotic: A novel complementary treatment process for antibiotic removal from effluent of conventional biological wastewater treatment

Xiaoyan Bai et al.

Summary: This study proposes a new method to enhance the production of photosensitizers from microalgae for the removal of antibiotic residues in wastewater. By extracting photosynthetic electrons and inducing antibiotics, the accumulation of photoactive substances was significantly increased, leading to better degradation of antibiotic residues. This method provides a sustainable alternative to conventional physicochemical treatments.

Microalgae: Sustainable resource of carbohydrates in third-generation biofuel production

Chandrani Debnath et al.

Summary: Microalgae, with high neutral-lipid contents, have potential as feedstock for third-generation biofuel production, but face challenges in terms of commercial-scale operation due to techno-economic feasibility. Besides being able to accumulate high-value products, microalgae's high carbohydrate contents can be used as low-cost substrates for biofuel production by commercially important microbes.

Carbon dots enhance the recovery of microalgae bioresources from wastewater containing amoxicillin

Zhenhao Zhao et al.

Summary: Carbon dots enhanced the photosynthetic activity of Chlorella under antibiotic stress, leading to a significant increase in specific growth rate, photosystems II activity, and antibiotic removal. The toxicity of residuals was eliminated, while the removal of nitrogen and phosphorous increased, as well as the production of pigments, lipids, and proteins. This study proposed a new strategy for coupling microalgal bioresource production and toxic wastewater purification using CDs.
