Abstract : This project explores the means to improve the CO2bio-fixation rate through selection of species. Consortium of
species is isolated from the TNBJanamanjung’s outfall water, which has hinted a good success rate due to its potential of
having good robust species there. Samples were taken, analysed, isolated and identified. Two species were made known
through molecular identification as Chlorella sorokinianasp. and Chlorella Pyrenedoisa sp. A third species – a diatom was
identified morphologically as Amphora sp. These species were later mixed with different volume concentrations with the
existing Isochrysis sp. for CO2 fixation rates experiment. It was later determined that a ratio of 75% mixed species and 25%
Isochrysis sp. by volume gave the best CO2 fixation rate of 0.965 g. CO2/L.day. Bioactive compounds were also examined
for this new consortium, of which good and encouraging contents and variability of protein (and its essential amino acids)
and lipids (and its free fatty acid contents) were observed which provides information on potential downstream products
development.
Keywords- bioactive compounds, consortium, CO2 fixation rate, robust.
