Abstract Pharmaceutical contaminants such as cortisone acetate pose a significant environmental challenge due to their persistence in aquatic systems and the limited effectiveness of conventional wastewater treatment processes. This study evaluated the potential of the microalga Scenedesmus obtusus for the removal and biodegradation of cortisone acetate under varying salinity, pH, and exposure time conditions.

Abstract Microalgal treatment can couple pharmaceutical attenuation with organic-matter and nutrient removal, but the operating windows for saline and freshwater species remain insufficiently defined. This laboratory study combined a central composite design, dual-detector confirmation of cortisone acetate (CA) removal, biomass mass balance, and artificial neural network (ANN) modelling and genetic algorithm (GA) optimisation to evaluate Tetraselmis chui (T. chui) and Scenedesmus obtusus (S.
