Both I. galbana and P. lutheri had enhanced cell growth and lipid accumulation at 15 level with maximum specific growth rate (0.16 d- and 0.14 d-) and lipid content (26.3 {\^A}{$\pm$} 0.31 and 34.5 {\^A}{$\pm$} 0.82 ), respectively, after 16 days of cultivation. The microalgal cell growth was not only enhanced with POME feeding, the COD (74.5-80.1 ), BOD (68.3-82.5 ), TOC (43.1-62.3 ), TN (48.7- 59.9 ) and oil and grease (59.1-68.8 ), were also efficiently removed from POME.
