Co-cultivation of <i>Rhodotorula glutinis</i> and <i>Chlorella pyrenoidosa</i> to improve nutrient removal and protein content by their synergistic relationship

Abstract

Aiming at treating piggery wastewater and producing useful products, a novel method using a co-culture of <italic>Chlorella pyrenoidosa</italic> and <italic>Rhodotorula glutinis</italic> in piggery wastewater was proposed in this study to improve nutrient removal and the protein content in the feed produced.
