Evaluación del Crecimiento de Chlorella vulgaris en Función de la Concentración de Potasio, Fosfatos y Nitrato en el Medio de Cultivo

Abstract

The production of biomass from the microalgae Chlorella vulgaris has gained relevance in recent years due to its potential in various applications and its ability to adapt to different environments. This research aimed to explore the optimal conditions for the growth of Chlorella vulgaris, analyzing key factors such as temperature, pH, luminosity and the composition of the nutrient medium, this research was to evaluate the growth of Chlorella vulgaris as a function of the concentration of potassium, phosphates and nitrates in order to determine the optimal concentration of these nutrients and maximize the biomass. The research was carried out using a laboratory-scale bioreactor system, using an experimental design that involved the manipulation of potassium, phosphates, and nitrate concentrations. The results of this research will contribute to the development of more efficient and costeffective techniques for the production of biomass from Chlorella vulgaris.
