Microalgal Bioengineering (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

This book presents recent advances, challenges, and trends in modern microalgal biotechnology. It covers microalgae genetics, bioreactors, modeling, massive scale and industrial cultivation, and environmental, social, and economic aspects of microalgal biotechnology. The book also explores the emerging knowledge about high-value bioproducts from microalgae, e.g., biofuels, biosurfactants, bioremediation, bioplastics/biopolymers, pharmaceuticals, antioxidants (anti-aging), fatty acids, polysaccharides and proteins, feed and superfoods with microalgae. The chapters will be written by prominent professors and researchers from the six inhabited continents of the world, from academic to industrial sectors.

Autor

Jorge Alberto Vieira Costa, Full Professor of Biochemical and Food Engineering at Federal University of Rio Grande, Brazil Dr. B. Greg Mitchell is a Research Biologist and Senior Lecturer (Emeritus) at the University of California San Diego, Scripps Institution of Oceanography and Associate Director for the California Center for Algae Biotechnology (CalCAB). He was a founding member of the Board of the Algae Biomass Organization and the Algae Foundation. He currently serves as Vice Chairman for the Board of the Algae Foundation. Dr. Mitchell is an expert in ocean photosynthesis, satellite remote sensing, numerical modeling of algae growth in the co-limitation matrix of nutrients, temperature and light, and algal biotechnology. He is currently active in coordinating research and commercial demonstration of both microalgae and macroalgae mass culture for biofuel, animal feed and abatement of waste CO2 and nutrients including modeling of production yields and lifecycle analysis. Dr. Mitchell has published more than 130 articles in peer-reviewed scientific journals.
