Cultivation of microalgae has gained significant interest as an alternative protein source, potentially becoming a target commodity recovered from microalgae-based wastewater treatment. This study examined a semi-continuous cultivation strategy to optimize protein accumulation of the indigenous freshwater chlorophytes, Lobochlamys segnis and Klebsormidium flaccidum, and simultaneously remove nutrients from wastewater efficiently. A strain-specific regime was made based on a fixed biomass concentration at the start of 24-h cultivation cycle, i.e., a constant initial cell density, which regulated harvesting and fresh medium supply volume according to the dilution rate. Six cultivation cycles were conducted in lab-scale 1L reactors with a synthetic municipal wastewater. Lobochlamys segnis and K. flaccidum grew exponentially in all cycles. The biomass productivity was 573 and 580 mg L–1 day–1, in which the total protein consisted of 62 and 45% of dry cell weight (dw), respectively. When a culture medium deficient in nitrogen and phosphorus was used, protein level was significantly reduced. L. segnis consumed all NH4+ and PO43– supplied by the medium replacement, giving the removal rate of 9.2 and 5.2 mg L–1 day–1. Whereas K. flaccidum removed 13.8 mg L–1 day–1 NH4+ without completing PO43– removal. The amino acid profile of both strains was characterized by glutamic acids content (4–5% dw). We concluded that the designed cultivation regime would support a constant biomass production with stable and high protein content, along with an efficient removal of nutrient from the wastewater.

Semi-natural hay meadows are among the most species-rich habitats in Norway as well as in Europe. To maintain the biodiversity of hay meadows, it is important to understand local management regimes and the land use history that has shaped them and their biodiversity. There is however a general erosion of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK), related to hay meadows and other semi-natural habitats. This review aims to examine historical and written sources of land use practices related to hay meadows and to discuss the implications of a re-introduction of TEK in present and future management practices. Traditional land use practices and TEK obtained from written sources from four Norwegian regions and for the country as a whole are compared with present management practices. Written sources show that hay meadows have been managed in a complex but flexible way. Today's management regimes of hay meadows in Norway are streamlined and strongly simplified, most often involving only one late mowing and in some cases grazing. This simplification may result in loss of biodiversity. The potential to include more variety of management practices in hay meadows, by utilizing knowledge from written sources more systematically in combination with farmers’ experienced knowledge (TEK) should be better utilized. Such an approach may secure both the biodiversity in hay meadows and TEK for the future. Former and present landscape ecological contexts in the infield-outlying land system show that management should be done for larger landscapes rather than small, isolated hay meadows, to optimize biodiversity conservation. For this study, we conducted a Norwegian literature review, based on ethnographical and ethnobotanical sources, as well as historical and present agricultural statistics, historical maps, results from research projects, and other sources. Our findings are discussed with similar European studies focusing on the historical management of hay meadows.
