Part of the book series: Solar Energy R&D in the European Community ((SRDE,volume 1))

Summary

This paper reports the results of the research on the mass culture of phytoplanton organisms in fertilized seawater carried out in the south of Italy (Lamezia Terme — Calabria) during 1980 and the first five months of 1981. The main goals of this work have been the evaluation of the productivity of marine photosynthetic organisms using Tetraselmis sp. as a model organism, the development of the appropriate culture technique and the selection of al gal strains with growth properties suitable for the MCL process. Preliminary results on the mass culture of two “filterable” strains are reported.
