Abstract:Many studies demonstrated the success of employing algal cultures to remove nutrients from wastewater rich in nitrogenous and phosphorus compounds.Until recently,very little specific work has been focused on landfill leachate treatment using microalgae.The main objective of this study was to identify two microalgal strains of different origins by applying molecular techniques,and examine their growth in landfill leachate and ability to remove the nutrients.;Two algal strains were isolated respectively from ...
