Microalgae sp were cultivated in effluent from the household appliance industry as an alternative medium for bioremediation due to the high variability of chemical and biological substances in wastewater. The experiments were carried out using biological effluent (BE), chemical effluent (CE), and a combination of the two (MIX). The results showed a maximum biomass yield of 1056 mg/L (± 0.216) in the BE cultivation of the microalga 969 mg/L (± 0.20) in the BE of the microalga sp. and 468 mg/L (± 0.46) in the CE of In addition, they showed removal (100%) in the CE and MIX for cultivation with and 100% BE and 75% MIX with sp For the (75.3%, 99% e 97.9%) in the cultures with BE, CE, and MIX respectively, with sp. 58% in BE and 42% in CE and MIX. With , 100% removal was observed in all 3 treatments. Metal removal was also observed. The culture showed lipid contents of 16%, 12%, and 17% for BE, CE, and MIX, respectively. For sp., 14.5% for BE, 16% for CE, and 14% for MIX. In the culture of 17%, 15.5%, and 16.5% for BE, CE, and MIX, respectively.
