  The effects of different initial concentrations of bisphenol A (BPA) on Chlorella vulgaris and removal capacity of BPA by Chlorella vulgaris were investigated under the light and the dark cultural conditions. Experiments were performed in 250 mL flasks under light and dark conditions with different BPA concentrations. Results showed that 0-20 mg·L-1 BPA concentration under the light condition and 0-10 mg·L-1 BPA concentration under dark condition plays a promoting role on the growth of Chlorella vulgaris in terms of cell density. The effect of BPA removal under light condition was obviously better than that under the dark condition. The maximum BPA removal rates were 3.425 ± 0.145 mg (L·d)-1 and 1.530 ± 0.025 mg (L·d)-1 under two conditions and were observed during 2-4 d and 0-2 d, respectively. The largest removal amounts of BPA under two con.. Read More»
