Abstract: A method is provided for growing microalgae from wastewater for oil production in a three-step wastewater treatment facility. In the method, two carbon sources are selected for addition to the wastewater, which contains naturally-occurring bacteria. Specifically, the first carbon source is selected to increase the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio and the carbon-to-phosphorous ratio within the microalgae. The first carbon source serves as a food source for the microalgae, and the second carbon source promotes the breakdown of carbon nitrogen and phosphorous by the bacteria cells into a more easily digestible form for the microalgae. Due to the added carbon, the wastewater supports growth of the microalgae and the production of oils therein.
