Abstract

This study was conducted to see the effect of growth and antioxidant activity of microalgae Oocystis sp before and after adding NaOCl to Growmore medium combined with urea. Antioxidant activity test was conducted by calculating IC50 spectrophotometrically with the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. Oocystis sp extract was obtained by sonication and maceration process with methanol solvent. The results showed the best growth curve for the growth of microalgae Oocystis sp in a mixture of Growmore medium 0.02% b/v and Urea 0.002% b/v. These results also showed a decrease in Oocystis sp growth in a mixture of Growmore medium 0.02% b/v and Urea 0.002% b/v with the lowest growth decrease in the addition of NaOCl with a concentration of 0.01%. The IC50 value of Oocystis sp extract in methanol solvent has high antioxidant activity in Growmore 0.02% b/v + Urea 0.002% b/v medium, which is 55.5862 mg/L. It can be concluded that NaOCl affects the growth and antioxidant activity of microalgae Oocystis sp, but at certain concentrations NaOCl experienced a negative effect.Keywords: Microalgae, Oocytis sp, Oxidative Stress, Growth, Antioxidant

Abstract

 The utilization of Areca catechu L. fruit peel waste as biochar offers a sustainable solution for waste management while enhancing the material’s value as an efficient adsorbent. Biochar from Areca catechu L. fruit peels was processed through pyrolysis for 2 hours at temperature of 500oC. This study investigates the use of biochar from Areca catechu L. peel as an adsorbent for Malachite Green (MG) and Reactive Blue (RB) dyes in a batch system, with a focus on analysing the kinetic adsorption processes. The biochar was characterized using XRD, FTIR, SEM and BET. BET analysis was conducted, which shows that the surface area of biochar from Areca catheca L. fruit peel after pyrolysis treatment was 29.52 m2/g. The adsorption of MG by the biochar from Areca catechu L. peels was found to be greater than that of RB. The biochar showed an adsorption capacity of 16.113 mg/g for MG, while its capacity for RB was 15.499 mg/g. The adsorption process of biochar from Areca catechu L. peels for both MG and RB dyes follows a pseudo-second-order kinetic model.

Abstract

Microalgae are a potential source of biological biomass due to their ability to produce various bioactive compounds. This study aims to analyze the growth curves and carotenoid content of two microalgae Chlorella Vulgaris and Chlorella Pyrenoidosa, to evaluate their potential as natural carotenoid sources. Microalgae cultures were cultivated in two different types of media, namely F1/2 Guillard and Walne. Growth monitoring was carried out by measuring dry biomass and cell density at a wavelength of 680 nm, while carotenoid content was analyzed spectrophotometrically at wavelengths of 470, 652, and 665 nm. All experiments were carried out in triplicate (n = 3) to obtain representative. The results showed that both species have distinctive growth patterns with different logarithmic phases. Chlorella Vulgaris showed a higher growth rate than Chlorella Pyrenoidosa, namely 0.80 ± 0.013 g/L and 0.43 ± 0.002 g/L for each microalgae. In addition, Guillard's F1/2 medium was proven to be more effective in supporting microalgae growth and carotenoid production in both microalgae strains, namely 0.653±0.018 µg/g for Chlorella Vulgaris and 0.436±0.049 µg/g for Chlorella Pyrenoidosa with a sig p value 0.05. These findings indicate that the selection of appropriate species and culture medium greatly influences microalgae productivity.

Abstract

Releasing polluted water directly into the environment causes serious problems because it contains harmful substances that can damage aquatic life and human health. To reduce these risks, it is important to treat and clean wastewater effectively. Microalgae have shown promise as a natural and sustainable way to treat wastewater. The microalgae help to remove pollutants and can also recover useful resources and energy from the water. The study used a systematic review methodology to identify and evaluate the role of microalgae wastewater treatment. The method was used since it provides a structures and transparent framework for selection, assessment and synthesize of evidence from relevant literature. This review highlights the benefits of using microalgae for wastewater treatment, as well as the challenges involved. Ongoing research focuses on improving these methods, including combining microalgae with bacteria to make the process more efficient and scalable. Despite some difficulties like contamination risks and regulatory issues, future advances especially in genetic engineering and hybrid systems are expected to improve microalgae-based wastewater treatment and make it a key tool for protecting the environment, while multidisciplinary collaboration combining molecular biology research, environmental engineering, public policy, and utilization of this technology at the industrial and societal levels that should be under consideration.
