| Abstract | The current study investigated the synergistic effect of waste glycerol and salinity on Scenedesmus obliquus cultivation for enhanced biomass and biodiesel production. Optimal glycerol concentration was identified at 0.08 M supplementation, resulting in 23.1 % significant increase in biomass productivity. However, higher glycerol concentrations resulted in growth retardation. Salinity of +200 % NaCl showed positive impact on the growth, with the highest recorded dry weight of 1.76 g/L and biomass productivity of 0.206 g/L.day. However, further increases in salinity resulted in 53.4 % reduction in biomass yield at +800 % NaCl compared to +200 % NaCl. The combined treatment of the optimum glycerol concentration at different salinities (Glyc + Salin) showed superior growth performance up to +600 % NaCl, which confirmed mitigation of salinity inhibitory effects. Glyc + Salin exhibited the highest recorded nitrogen and phosphorus removal efficiencies (98.1 % and 96.6 %, respectively at day 8), dry weight (2.02 g/L), and biomass productivity (0.231 g/L.day). Notably, lipid content increased to 240.4 mg/g dw, and lipid productivity reached 56.0 mg/L.day, representing 76.1 % improvement over the control. Biodiesel characteristics, including cetane numbers and iodine values, showed also improvement, confirming the potential of Glyc + Salin for sustainable microalgal cultivation and biodiesel production. |
