Bioremediation of wastewater using algae for potential renewable bioenergy cogeneration

Wastewater contains both nutrients and hazardous chemical compounds depending on its source (i.e., refinery, domestic, urban, hospital, agriculture, and industry). Algae can convert wastewater contaminants and simultaneously generate oxygen via photosynthesis into less dangerous compounds. The integ...
