Full Description
Sustainable Microalgal Biorefinery provides an overview of microalgae at the cellular level and their potential uses across a range of industries. Beginning with an introduction to microalgae biorefinery systems, its latest research and limitations, the book delves into the fundamental aspects of microalgae and their potential applications, such as biofuel production, water treatment, bioplastics production, carbon capture, aquaculture feed, and high-value bioproducts including food, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical products. Recent developments in photobioreactors design for microalgae are also covered, as well as genetic modifications to achieve desired bio-products. The book also focuses on assessing the social, environmental, and economic sustainability of microalgae technologies, and how microalgae contributes to achieving UN SDG goals. This latest volume in the Elsevier series Developments in Microbial Cell Factories: From Design to Commercial Production provides researchers with valuable insights into the transformation of traditional algal research and the recent trends of resource recovery and integrated technology that can be utilized to enhance sustainability and commercialization potential of microalgae. This book is a valuable resource for researchers and scientists working with microalgae across a range of fields, including cell biology, renewable energy, biotechnology, biochemical engineering, pharmaceutical science and environmental science.
