Microalgae-assisted regulation of hydrothermal liquefaction aqueous phase for pollutant removal and sustainable recycling

Puntos clave

• Pollutant removal from hydrothermal liquefaction aqueous phase is significantly enhanced with microalgae.
• The study reports a decrease in targeted pollutants by up to 60% using microalgae treatments.
• Assessment using hydrothermal liquefaction techniques shows effective pollutant elimination across various water samples.
• Findings may enable sustainable recycling processes but require further validation in larger settings.
