Desalination concentrate produced by inland desalination plants can potentially provide water and nutrients for algal growth. Several studies have been conducted in Brazil to explore the use of desalination concentrate as an alternative medium for microalgae cultivation. This review describes examples of microalgae cultured in desalination concentrate and evaluates the effects of desalination concentrate on algal biomass productivity, lipid content, lipid productivity, protein, and fatty acids composition.
