| Summary: | This research aims to investigate the ability of
theVerhulst model to estimate the growth of microalgae and the
nutrient removal by microalgae in wastewater. First, the Verhulst
model is applied to reproduce the previous results of the microalgae
Chlorella Vulgaris growth and nutrient removal in different
wastewaters. In this research, the result showed a similar agreement.
Next, the Verhulst model is implemented to predict the growth of
microalgae Botryococcus sp. and nutrient removal by microalgae
Botryococcus sp. in domestic wastewater.The growth of microalgae
and the nutrient removal by microalgae Botryococcus sp. in
domestic wastewater are investigated by using Mathematica
software. As a result, the estimation of the microalgae Botryococcus
sp. growth and nutrient removal in wastewater can be obtained and
thus the microalgae Botryococcus sp.are suitable for treating
domestic wastewater.
