Paper Summary

Nitrates in water are a big problem worldwide, especially from industries. Scientists found that using a type of freshwater algae called Chlorella sp. can help clean up wastewater by removing nitrogen and phosphorus. This is important because too much nitrogen in water can lead to eutrophication. The study aimed to make wastewater treatment more effective and affordable by using these algae.
