... and phosphorus, are provided to enhance growth during the day (Grobbelaar 2004). Mixing the algal materials continuously prevents them from settling. Carbon dioxide is usually satisfied by the natural air, but aerators can be used to increase CO2 absorption. The water pH level and physical environment should ensure about 90% of CO2 absorption for this procedure (Brennan 2010). The ... less maintenance efforts, which can reduce the required energy to produce microalgae and generate their potential. On the other hand, the open pond system experiences certain disadvantages. The open-air des...
