Despite the extensive development of microalgae biotechnology, it still requires new methodologies to lower production costs, especially in the field of biofuel production. Therefore, innovative methods that facilitate operations and enable cost-effective production are important in driving this industry. In this study, we propose a new low-cost and easy-to-use procedure, addressed to the generation of a culture medium for Scenedesmus acutus. The medium was obtained by thermal reduction of a sludge sample from El Ferrol Bay (Chimbote, Peru), whereby we obtained an aqueous medium. Our results indicated that the aqueous medium incorporates all necessary nutrients for microalgae production; allowing a maximum biomass of 0.75 ± 0.07 g/L with 60% of the medium; while high lipids production (59.42 ± 6.16%) was achieved with 20%. Besides, we quantified, in the experimental medium and at the end of the cultures, the levels of inorganic nutrients such as ammonium, nitrites, nitrates, and phosphates; in addition to COD and TOC, which were significantly reduced ($$p<$$ p < 0.05) after 7 days of culture, mainly in the treatment with 20%. These results suggest tremendous potential for sludge reuse, which also entails a cost reduction in microalgae biomass production, with additional positive impacts on large-scale application over highly polluted environments.

This article provides an overview of recent advances in the development of nature-based material designs in architecture and construction fields. Firstly, it aims to classify existing projects and ongoing researches into three types: bioinspired, biobased and living building materials. Secondly, selected case studies absolving different functions in building, are analysed to identify new opportunities and contemporary challenges of different nature-based approaches. The main gaps are identified between the progression at a theoretical level in laboratories and real-world application. Particulary, the challenge is to implement existing and future bioinspired, biobased and living building materials in large scale designs and architectural contexts. The authors also discuss different aspects of the inspiration and the use of nature to improve better the design of materials properties, robustness, durability, including sustainable awareness. Finally, an outlook of promising avenues for future interdisciplinary research and specific questions associated with methods and techniques of implementation of the different types of bioinspired, biobased and living material designs and fabrications in architecture are highlighted.
