abstract: Utilizing compost derived from waste offers an alternative nutrients source to cultivate microalgae for biofuel production. This is because compost is a low-cost nutrients source which contains high amount of nutrient composition that suitable for microalgae cultivation. Thus, in the present work, plant-based compost and animal waste-based compost were used to cultivate Chlorella vulgaris. The results shows that C. vulgaris favoured to grow at the following condition: 50 ml amount of goat waste-based compost, under pH of 9, and illuminated continuously for 15 days using fluorescent light. Based on these cultivation conditions, 30 of lipid was successfully extracted from the dried microalgae biomass. © 2016 The Authors.
