Algae biofilm growth and the potential to stimulate lipid accumulation through nutrient starvation

•A system was developed to study the growth kinetics of algal biofilms.•Algal biofilm growth kinetics are linear.•Nutrient starvation caused sloughing and/or growth cessation of algae biofilms.•Nutrient starvation did not increase in algal biofilm lipid concentrations.•Algal biofilm lipid productivi...
