Sumario: Microalgae are an alternative for wastewater treatment, as they have the capacity to purify through phycoremediation. This research was performed at laboratory level to reduce the contaminants in wastewater at IAM-Q Laboratory of the Department of Environment, through the consortium microalgae Chlorella sp., and Scenedesmus sp. The crops used for the treatment started with a cell density of 2.5x106 cell/mL microalgea consortium, and 15 mL of Nitrofoska (3 mL/L), in plastic containers of 5 L capacity, 3 L of effluent was used pH 9 further control containing effluent without the consortium was used, the experiment was performed in 5 replications and maintained with constant aeration and illumination for 15 days. The growth of the consortium microalgae was evaluated by cell count. The efficiency of removal of contaminants from the effluent was determined, reporting maximum rates of 89.57% for removal Chemical Oxygen Demand (DQO), 98.32% for Biochemical Oxygen Demand (DBO5), 77.47% for total phosphorus, 99.18% for phenol, 89.8% for surfactants, 18.03% for sulfates, 99.66% for cyanides and 99.20% for sulfur.
