Abstract

In the last years, the acidothermophilic red microalgaGaldieria sulphurariahas been increasingly studied for industrial applications such as wastewater treatment, recovery of rare earth elements, production of phycobilins. However, even now it is not possible an industrial cultivation of this organism because biotechnological research onG. sulphurariaand allied species is relatively recent and fragmented. Having in mind a possible scale-up for commercial applications, we have compared the growth and photosynthetic performance ofG. sulphurariain four suspended systems (Inclined bubble column, Decanter Laboratory Flask, Tubular Bioreactor, Ultra-flat plate bioreactor) and one immobilized system (Twin Layer Sytem). The results showed thatG. sulphurariahad the highest growth, productivity and photosynthetic performance, when grown on the immobilized system, which also offers some economics advantages.
