Annotation
The dissertation focuses on the valorization of digestate from agricultural biogas plants for the cultivation of selected microalgae species. Low-cost continuous flow photobioreactors will be designed and employed for the cultivation process, followed by an assessment of the potential use of the resulting microalgal biomass for anaerobic fermentation. A key outcome of the research will be data on the growth of selected microalgae species under various temperature and light conditions.
