Abstract
Microalgal cultivation in wastewater can significantly reduce the nutrient requirements and helps in wastewater management. In this study, Chlorella protothecoides was cultured on cigarette butt leachate admixed with culture medium. The cigarette butt leachate concentrations in the culture medium were set from 0 % to 100 % and a maximum biomass production was achieved at 60 % concentration (1.24 g L−1). The lipid content of Chlorella protothecoides was increased by 9.98 %, carbohydrate content by 40.93 % and protein content by 42.93 % with 60 % of cigarette butt leachate concentration as compared to the control. Water quality analysis after microalgal cultivation revealed that the N and P elements in the cigarette butt leachate wastewater were removed completely by the microalgal growth. Life cycle assessment (LCA) analysis was carried out to evaluate the environmental sustainability of the process, which has revealed that the cigarette butt leachate wastewater has significant reduction in the environmental impacts with a CO2 emission reduction up to 338 %. The study empirically suggested that the cigarette butt leachate mixed culture medium has potentially promoted the growth, lipid and protein in Chlorella protothecoides which can improve the upstream economics along with the environmental benefits of waste management.
期刊介绍：
Biomass & Bioenergy is an international journal publishing original research papers and short communications, review articles and case studies on biological resources, chemical and biological processes, and biomass products for new renewable sources of energy and materials.
The scope of the journal extends to the environmental, management and economic aspects of biomass and bioenergy.
Key areas covered by the journal:
• Biomass: sources, energy crop production processes, genetic improvements, composition. Please note that research on these biomass subjects must be linked directly to bioenergy generation.
• Biological Residues: residues/rests from agricultural production, forestry and plantations (palm, sugar etc), processing industries, and municipal sources (MSW). Papers on the use of biomass residues through innovative processes/technological novelty and/or consideration of feedstock/system sustainability (or unsustainability) are welcomed. However waste treatment processes and pollution control or mitigation which are only tangentially related to bioenergy are not in the scope of the journal, as they are more suited to publications in the environmental arena. Papers that describe conventional waste streams (ie well described in existing literature) that do not empirically address ''new'' added value from the process are not suitable for submission to the journal.
• Bioenergy Processes: fermentations, thermochemical conversions, liquid and gaseous fuels, and petrochemical substitutes
• Bioenergy Utilization: direct combustion, gasification, electricity production, chemical processes, and by-product remediation
• Biomass and the Environment: carbon cycle, the net energy efficiency of bioenergy systems, assessment of sustainability, and biodiversity issues.
