Attachment effects of six carrier materials on the cultivation of high-value microalga Scenedesmus sp. LX1 in diluted swine wastewater were investigated. The results showed that when the initial algal densities were 5×10⁵ cells/mL and 1×10⁶ cells/mL in sterilized wastewater with 20-fold dilution, the biomass of microalgae attaching to geotextile was the highest. The contact angle and surface structure of the material affected the attachment of microalgae. Further, among the four dilutions, the highest attached biomass on geotextile was 414.47 mg/L in the sterilized wastewater at 20-fold, but the pollutants removal rate and attached biomass were higher in the non-sterile wastewater in the other three dilutions (original wastewater, 5-fold, 10-fold). Next, the microalgae were able to remove pollutants with the highest removal rates of COD, TN, NH₄⁺-N and TP reaching to 86.92%, 60.75%, 71.81% and 96.13%. Moreover, the microalga was found to accumulate high-value products especially protein as high as 44.57%.
