Microalgal Biofuels: Biotechnology and Biorefineries advances reader understanding of microalgal biofuels as a sustainable energy solution and encourages the transition to cleaner energy by highlighting cutting-edge biotechnologies and innovative practices for reducing CO2 emissions in the biofuel production process. Broken into five sections, the first section, Microalgal Biofuels: Biotechnology and Biorefineries presents the scientific underpinnings of biofuel production and explores cutting-edge biotechnologies that are transforming microalgal biofuel production. Section two, "Advanced Microalgal Biofuels," focuses on the latest developments in biodiesel production from microalgae and discusses the novel production methods and standards in the industry. The third section, "Microalgal Biorefineries,” provides an in-depth examination of the design, technologies, and impacts of microalgal biorefineries with emphasis on the importance of optimal biomass utilization. Section four, "Environmental and Co-Product Perspectives," explores the environmental benefits of microalgal biofuels and the potential use of co-products such as nutraceuticals, animal feed, and bioplastics that reinforce the concept of a circular bioeconomy. Finally, section five, "Future Trends and Case Studies," considers the future of microalgal biofuels and discusses market trends, commercial production challenges, and innovative case studies from the field. Researchers and professionals in the fields of bioenergy, biotechnology, renewable energy, and environmental science, as well as students studying related fields will benefit from this timely reference.Offers insights on improving biofuel yield through innovative techniques such as genomics, proteomics, and gene editingExplores sustainable practices for biodiesel production and the efficient utilization of microalgal biomass in biorefineriesProvides potential solutions for CO2 capture and wastewater treatment, thereby addressing environmental challengesDiscusses strategies for overcoming hurdles in commercial-scale production, thereby contributing to the advancement of the microalgal biofuel industry
