Sustainable Microalgal Biorefinery, the latest release in Elsevier's Developments in Microbial Cell Factories: From Design to Commercial Production series, provides an overview of microalgae at the cellular level, along with their potential uses across a range of industries. Beginning with an introduction to microalgae biorefinery systems and the latest research and limitations, the book delves into the fundamental aspects of microalgae and their potential applications, such as biofuel production, water treatment, bioplastics production, carbon capture, aquaculture feed, and high-value bioproducts, including food, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals. Photobioreactors design for microalgae are also covered, as well as genetic modifications to achieve desired bio-products. The book also focuses on assessing the social, environmental, and economic sustainability of microalgae technologies and how microalgae contributes to achieving UN SDG goals. This latest volume provides researchers with valuable insights into the transformation of traditional algal research and the recent trends of resource recovery and integrated technology that can be utilized to enhance sustainability and commercialization potential of microalgae.Explores microalgae and its potential applicationsConsiders biomolecule extraction methods for the analysis of microalgal cell factoriesExamines the sustainability of microalgal systemsEnhances understanding of the integration of microalgae with other technologies
