The possibility of the use of nitrogenous wastewaters as a medium for Stichococcus bacillaris

The possibility of the use of nitrogenous wastewaters as a medium for $\text{Stichococcus bacillaris}$ was investigated. The strain grew equally well in nitrogenous wastewaters as in synthetic medium and its productivity was affected mainly by concentration of ammonium nitrogen. The obtained results suggest that nitrogenous wastewaters could be used for large-scale cultures of $\text{S. bacillaris}$.
