Today's planet faces several critical problems such as resource
depletion, environmental destruction, and climate change that
affect all areas of life as we know it. Figuring out how to address
these issues and prioritizing Earth's health has been at the
forefront of study as it is a key issue that affects us all. One
element that requires further investigation is algae regarding its
potential for creating a more sustainable future across the food,
energy, and environmental sectors. Examining Algae as a Sustainable
Solution for Food, Energy, and the Environment provides insight
into the biotechnological and biorefinery aspects of algae together
with their unique applications in the agriculture and
pharmaceutical industry. Furthermore, this book considers the
biological and biotechnological processes happening in the
cultivation and harvesting of algae, DNA sequencing, and genomics
of algae. Moreover, it examines the bio-remediation aspects of
algae and its utilization to produce biofuels, methane, hydrogen,
and other useful renewable sources of energy, thereby contributing
to environmental sustainability. Covering topics such as cell
biology and food science, this reference work is ideal for
academicians, researchers, industry professionals, scholars,
practitioners, instructors, and students.
This book (hardcover) is part of the TREDITION CLASSICS. It
contains classical literature works from over two thousand years.
Most of these titles have been out of print and off the bookstore
shelves for decades. The book series is intended to preserve the
cultural legacy and to promote the timeless works of classical
literature. Readers of a TREDITION CLASSICS book support the
mission to save many of the amazing works of world literature from
oblivion. With this series, tredition intends to make thousands of
international literature classics available in printed format again
- worldwide.

understanding throughout their course with clear topic summaries
and sample questions and answers to help your students target
higher grades. Written by experienced teacher Dan Foulder, our
Student Guides are divided into two key sections, content guidance
and sample questions and answers. Content guidance will: - Develop
students' understanding of key concepts and terminology; this guide
covers basic biochemistry and cell organisation. - Consolidate
students' knowledge with 'knowledge check questions' at the end of
each topic and answers in the back of the book. Sample questions
and answers will: - Build students' understanding of the different
question types, so they can approach each question with confidence.
- Enable students to target top grades with sample answers and
commentary explaining exactly why marks have been awarded.
