An Integrated Approach of Using Polystyrene Foam as an Attachment System for Growth of Mixed Culture of Cyanobacteria with Concomitant Treatment of Copper Mine Waste Water
Figure 2
Biomass yield and protein content of mixed Cyanobacterial culture incubated at 26–30°C and 16/8 h photoperiod in a culture room under 3000 lux from cool white light. (a) Biomass yield and (b) total protein content of mixed Cyanobacterial culture in both attachment and suspended systems in presence of BG-11 growth medium and in presence of different concentrations of copper mine waste water. (A) represents attachment system and (S) represents suspended system, respectively. Values are represented as mean ± standard deviation of three independent experiments.
