The Effect of Tofu Wastewater and pH on the Growth Kinetics and Biomass Composition of Euglena sp.

Abstract: Media and pH are two crucial factors in microalgal cultivation. Industrial wastewater such as tofu wastewater can be utilized as alternative media for growing microalgae like Euglena sp. to produce biomass as feedstock in biorefinery activities. Here, we evaluated combinations of tofu wastewater (L) consisting of 0% (L1), 75% (L2), and 100% (L3) with pH (P) levels consisting of 5.0 (P1), 5.5 (P2), 6.0 (P3), 6.5 (P4), and 7.0 (P5). The analyses were carried out on the growth kinetics, biomass, primary metabolit… Show more

“…Various kinds of waste have been reported to be used as nutrient sources for the growth of an organism including plants. Utilization of organic-rich nutrient components can reduce production costs and increase the yield of agricultural production [6,7]. Hydroxyapatite is a source of green fertilizer that can be produced from various types of waste, such as shellfish, shell egg, and fish bone (Figure 1).…”

“…Beyond these typical synthetic growth mediums, studies have been conducted using food and its by-products as substrates for the growth and upcycling of E. gracilis . These studies employed plant-based foods (tomato juice [ 31 ], spent tomato byproduct (STB) [ 35 ], potato liquor [ 36 ], corn steep solid [ 37 ], corn steep liquor and brewer’s spent grain [ 38 ], kinnow peel extract [ 39 ], tofu wastewater [ 40 ], and a mixture of sewage and organic wastes (molasses, corn steep liquor, and waste wine) [ 41 ]). Our research is the first to use an animal-based food (Katsuo dashi; Bonito stock) in this context.…”

“…With producing E. gracilis using food-grade highly sterilized food processing by-products, the product is applicable to functional foods and pharmaceuticals. Specifically, potato liquor, 23 corn steep solid, 24 corn steep liquor and brewer's spent grain, 25 kinnow peel extract, 26 tofu wastewater, 27 mixture of sewage and organic wastes (molasses, corn steep liquor, and waste wine) 28 and Spent Tomato Byproduct (STB) 29 have been used to grow E. gracilis to efficiently and economically produce paramylon. In growth using STB, hydrolysis treatment of STB and adjustment to the appropriate pH enabled the production twice the amount of biomass of CM medium.…”
