The Handbook of Microalgae-based Processes and Products provides a
complete overview of all aspects involved in the production and
utilization of microalgae resources at commercial scale. Divided
into four parts (fundamentals, microalgae-based processes,
microalgae-based products, and engineering approaches applied to
microalgal processes and products), the book explores the
microbiology and metabolic aspects of microalgae, microalgal
production systems, wastewater treatment based in microalgae, CO2
capture using microalgae, microalgae harvesting techniques, and
extraction and purification of biomolecules from microalgae. It
covers the largest number of microalgal products of commercial
relevance, including biogas, biodiesel, bioethanol, biohydrogen,
single-cell protein, single-cell oil, biofertilizers, pigments,
polyunsaturated fatty acids, bioactive proteins, peptides and amino
acids, bioactive polysaccharides, sterols, bioplastics,
UV-screening compounds, and volatile organic compounds. Moreover,
it presents and discusses the available engineering tools applied
to microalgae biotechnology, such as process integration, process
intensification, and techno-economic analysis applied to microalgal
processes and products, microalgal biorefineries, life cycle
assessment, and exergy analysis of microalgae-based processes and
products. The coverage of a broad range of potential microalgae
processes and products in a single volume makes this handbook an
indispensable reference for engineering researchers in academia and
industry in the fields of bioenergy, sustainable development, and
high-value compounds from biomass, as well as graduate students
exploring those areas. Engineering professionals in bio-based
industries will also find valuable information here when planning
or implementing the use of microalgal technologies.
