Sustainable cultivation of Haematococcus pluvialis and Chromochloris zofingiensis for the production of astaxanthin and co‐products

Large‐scale cultivation of microalgae for the production of high‐value compounds raises concerns on sustainability due to intense consumption of water resources. Use of wastewater for microalgae cultivation is considered a promising alternative, because it not only reduces water consumption, but also provides nutrients required for microalgae growth. In the present study, Haematococcus pluvialis and Chromochloris zofingiensis were cultivated in...
