Arthrospira platensis was cultivated in tubular photobioreactor using different photosynthetic photon flux densities (PPFD) and protocols of (NH4)(2)SO4 fed-hatch supply. Results were evaluated by variance analysis selecting maximum cell concentration (X-m), cell productivity (P-x), nitrogen-to-cell conversion factor (Y-X/N) and biomass, protein and lipid contents as responses. At PPFD of 120 and 240 mu mol-photons/m(2) s, a parabolic profile of (NH4)(2)SO4 addition aiming at producing biomass with 7% nitrogen content ensured X-m values (14.1 and 12.2 g/L, respectively) comparable to those obtained with NaNO3. At PPFD of 240 mu mol-photons/m(2) s, P-x (1.69 g/Ld) was 36% higher, although the photosynthetic efficiency (3.0%) was less than one-half that at PPFD of 120 mu mol-photons/m(2) s. Biomass was shown to be constituted by about 35% proteins and 10% lipids, without any dependence on PPFD or kind of nitrogen source. These results highlight the possible use of (NH4)(2)SO4 as alternative, cheap nitrogen source for A. platensis cultivation in tubular photobioreactors.
