Fig. 5

Phototrophic batch process with T. lutea (red circle) and M. salina (green circle) in co-culture with an inoculation ratio of 1:3 in flat-plate gas-lift photobioreactors under simulated climate conditions. A cell dry weight concentration of T. lutea, B cell dry weight concentration of M. salina, C total cell dry weight concentration, D nitrate concentration, E DHA concentration, F EPA concentration, G DHA content of total cell dry weight, H EPA content of total cell dry weight. The batch process was operated at a working volume of 1.8 L, pH 8.0 and an initial nitrate supply of 1.8 g L−1. Data are expressed as a mean ± SD (n = 3)
