Abstract
- Algal biomass composition was modelled as a function of nitrogen and light supply.
- The model is based on the electron distribution in Neochloris oleoabundans.
- Starch is the primary storage component; its production is linked to growth.
- 8.6% of excess electrons caused by N limitation ends up in storage lipids (TAG).
- Starch, TAG and protein require very different optimal cultivation conditions.
