Brings together current advancements in microalgal biotechnology. It covers biofuel production and its technical challenges; current trends of microalgae in agriculture, aquaculture and food biotechnology; market space; biosafety and other regulatory issues; and sustainability of microalgal products.
Microalgae are a valuable resource of carbon materials that may be used in biofuels, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and health supplements. There are, however, many challenges in the microalgae production process, such as mass cultivation, strain improvement, biomass disruption, and reprocessing of nutrients and water that have been encumbering the microalgal industry. Microalgal biotechnology has the capability to introduce remarkable breakthroughs and innovations. This volume highlights current advancements in the field of microalgal biotechnology.

The key features of the book:
• Presents the role of microalgae in various industries, including food, agriculture,
aquaculture, biofuel, and metabolites
• Shows the historical and prospective uses of microalgae elements for economic and
ecological benefits
• Explains the integrated technologies for massive production of microalgae-derived
products
• Includes industrial case studies that illustrate sustainable production of microalgae
products
• Discusses current developments and advances in microalgae bioprocessing
