Utilization of nitrogen-rich agricultural waste streams by microalgae for the production of protein and value-added compounds
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2023 , Article)
Current food and feed production practices via agricultural processes generate waste streams often rich in nitrogen. Conversion of the nitrogen in agricultural waste into valuable products would prevent environmental ...
Biocrude oil production from a self-settling marine cyanobacterium, Chroococcidiopsis sp., using a biorefinery approach
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Although the whole microalgal biomass is typically used as a feedstock for hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL), the conversion of a primary metabolite (i.e., carbohydrate) to biocrude is very low. In this study, a self-settling ...
Biolubricant Synthesis by Additization and Chemical Modification from Lipid-Rich Brackish Coelastrella sp. Using a Biorefinery Approach
(
American Chemical Society
, 2023 , Article)
With a sizable market share and widespread use in automotive and industrial applications, biolubricants are produced from the oils of terrestrial plants that have undergone chemical modification or additive addition. ...
Pilot-scale crossflow ultrafiltration of four different cell-sized marine microalgae to assess the ultrafiltration performance and energy requirements
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Four marine microalgae (e.g., Tetraselmis, Picochlorum, Dunaliella, and Synechococcus) with different cell sizes were harvested using pilot-scale ultrafiltration. Average permeate fluxes were 16.75, 19, 25.35, and 33.75 ...
Microalgal bioremediation of brackish aquaculture wastewater
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Rapid aquaculture industry development contributed to a major increase in aquaculture wastewater generation. In the context of a circular economy, aquaculture wastewater treatment should simultaneously recover nutrients ...
