Cover Story: The intensification of agricultural practices involves the addition of excessive amounts of nutrients with a significant environmental impact. While hydroponic systems are used to mitigate this, nutrient drainage must still be overcome. A promising alternative for nutrient recovery is microalgae cultivation, requiring a significant quantity of nutrients for their growth. In addition, their biostimulant properties enables a more circular and sustainable approach. This paper evaluates the growth of three microalgae strains with a hydroponic drainage solution, highlighting Desmodesmus’ performance, which was the best. Finally, the strain was tested at the industrial scale using the obtained biomass in a biocatalysis process for biostimulant production. View this paper
