The present invention relates to the cultivation of mixotrophic microalgae. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method for cultivation of mixotrophic microalgae, comprising the steps of (a) acidifying a feedstock obtained from palm oil industry using hydrolytic microorganisms, acidogenic microorganisms, and acetogenesis microorganisms under a pH environment between 4 to 5.5 in a first area and obtaining a liquid mixture comprising short-chain organic acids and minerals; (b) feeding the liquid mixture into a second area, wherein the second area comprises microalgae and has a pH environment between 5 to 7; and (c) providing circulation in the first area, second area, or a combination thereof, whereby sediments formed at the bottom is displaced in an upward manner in order to be exposed to air and light in proximity to the surface of the respective area. In the first area, the circulation allows acidification of the feedstock to proceed in a non-anaerobic condition. In the second area, the circulation allows the mixotrophic microalgae at the bottom of the second area to be exposed to air and light so as to improve cultivation efficiency while preventing formation of anaerobic pockets in the liquid mixture which favour the growth of undesirable microorganisms, such as methanogenic microorganisms.

Provided is a useful method for treating waste water that contains a heavy metal or an organic pigment as a contaminant, wherein waste water from a factory or the like is continuously and gradually supplied, via an introduction path (21), to a treatment tank (2) which has been charged with thermophilic cyanobacteria such as Thermosynechococcus elongatus, and carbon dioxide gas is ejected from a gas supply pipe (22). In a photosynthetic environment which is, for example, irradiated with solar light, the waste water from the introduction path (21) is treated by being stirred with the thermophilic cyanobacteria by the ejected carbon dioxide gas, the water level in the treatment tank (2) rises, and the waste water flows out to a precipitation tank (3) through a liquid feed pipe (31). In the waste water that has flowed out to the precipitation tank (3), thermophilic bacteria contained therein precipitates to a bottom part as sludge, and a supernatant liquid flows out through a waste water pipe (32) due to a rise in water level. When waste water containing a heavy metal is treated, a supernatant liquid from which the heavy metal has been separated flows out, and when waste water containing an organic pigment is treated, a supernatant liquid from which the pigment has been removed flows out.
