Indonesia as a producer of tofu generated more liquid waste. Nutrients that contained in the tofu wastewater are very useful for the production of microalgae. Chlorella sp. is a microalgae that potential for food supplement, pharmaceuticals, animal feed, aqua culture and cosmetics. Chlorella sp. comonly grow in sea water. Glycerol in the cultivation medium as supplemental organic carbon sources for Microalgae. Cultivation carried out for 9 days at different percentages volume of tofu liquid waste and addition of glycerol. The result showed that increased concentration of tofu waste in microalgae cultivation media is proportional to the increase in lipid levels of Chlorella sp. Variable of 70%V has the highest concentration of lipid. The addition of glycerol in the cultivation medium enchancing lipid production. Variable of 5 g/l glycerol has the highest concentration of lipid. The higher ratio of carbon and nitrogen produces higher lipid content.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
