Abstract
Nitrogen-depleted environment during some lipogenic microalgal strains cultivation induces an additional accumulation of lipids, which can improve ecological and economical sustainability of a microalgae lipids production. Although, currently implemented in batch-mode cultures, with inherent limitations, the nitrogen-depletion could be performed under continuous mode with an effective technology: acoustic settler.
Keywords: Nitrogen depletion, Sonoperfusion, Acoustic filter, Microalgae, Lipids accumulation, Continuous culture.
