Algal Biorefineries and the Circular Bioeconomy
CRC Press (Verlag)
978-1-032-04893-2 (ISBN)
"Algae are mysterious and fascinating organisms that hold great potential for discovery and biotechnology."
—Dr. Thierry Tonon, Department of Biology, University of York
"Science is a beautiful gift to humanity; we should not distort it."
—A.P.J. Abdul Kalam
In this book, we emphasise the importance of algal biotechnology as a sustainable platform to replace the conventional fossil-based economy. With this focus, Volume 2 summarizes up-to-date literature knowledge and discusses the advances in algal cultivation, genetic improvement, wastewater treatment, resource recovery, commercial operation, and technoeconomic analysis of algal biotechnology.
FEATURES
Discusses in detail recent developments in algae cultivation and biomass harvesting
Provides an overview of genetic engineering and algal-bacteria consortia to improve productivity
Presents applications of algae in the area of wastewater treatment and resource recovery
Provides case studies and technoeconomic analysis to understand the algal biorefinery
