A key interlinking factor of many global issues is the accumulated negative effects pollution and poor resource/land management our remaining natural resources. Emerging applications microalgal biotechnology demonstrate potential for microalgae to solve some these challenges by reducing aquatic pollutants, as well providing a source sustainably produced feedstock product development. This review describes how can assist in achievement number United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals, including Zero Hunger, Clean Water Sanitation, Affordable Energy, Responsible Consumption Production, Life Below on Land.

Mankind has recognized the value of land plants as renewable sources food, medicine, and materials for millennia. Throughout human history, agricultural methods were continuously modified improved to meet changing needs civilization. Today, our rapidly growing population requires further innovation address practical limitations serious environmental concerns associated with current industrial practices. Microalgae are a diverse group unicellular photosynthetic organisms that emerging next-generation resources potential urgent demands. The extensive biological diversity algae can be leveraged produce wealth valuable bioproducts, either naturally or via genetic manipulation. additionally possess set intrinsic advantages, such low production costs, no requirement arable land, capacity grow in both large-scale outdoor systems scalable, fully contained photobioreactors. Here, we review technical advancements, novel fields application, products field algal biotechnology illustrate how could present high-tech, low-cost, environmentally friendly solutions many future society. We discuss technologies synthetic biology, high-throughput phenomics, application internet things (IoT) automation manufacturing technology advance understanding biology and, ultimately, drive establishment an algal-based bioeconomy.

Fossil fuels are a major contributor to climate change, and as the demand for energy production increases, alternative sources (e.g., renewables) becoming more attractive. Biofuels such bioethanol reduce reliance on fossil can be compatible with existing fleet of internal combustion engines. Incorporation biofuels engine (ICE) carbon dioxide emissions. Bioethanol is typically produced via microbial fermentation fermentable sugars, glucose, ethanol. Traditional feedstocks first-generation feedstock) include cereal grains, sugar cane, beets. However, due concerns regarding food sustainability, lignocellulosic (second-generation) algal biomass (third-generation) have been investigated. Ethanol yield from dependent multitude factors. This review compares range feedstocks, elaborates available technologies, including practices. The importance maintaining nutrient homeostasis yeast also examined. purpose this provide industrial producers policy makers insight into yields achieved by current manufacturing practices, goals future innovation.

Heavy metals in industrial wastewaters are posing a serious threat to the environment and human health. Microalgae increasingly being seen as potential solutions this problem they can remove pollutants through biosorption. This process offers certain advantages over other more traditional metal removal techniques it is simple, inexpensive, eco-friendly, be performed wide range of experimental conditions. Biosorption possible due unique complex structure microalgal cell wall. The variety functional groups on surface wall (such carboxyl or amino groups) act binding sites for heavy metals, thus removing them from environment. review focuses composition most commonly used microalgae shows role their biosorption process. also aims report models predict velocity capacities.

Abstract Background Vitamins’ deficiency in humans is an important threat worldwide and requires solutions. In the concept of natural biofactory for bioactive compounds production, microalgae represent one most promising targets filling many biotechnological applications, allowing development eco-sustainable production metabolites. Vitamins are probably cutting edges microalgal diversity compounds. Main text Microalgae can usefully provide required vitamins humans, more than terrestrial plants, instance. Indeed, D K, little present plants or fruits, instead available from microalgae. The same occurs some B (B 12 , 9 6 ), while other (A, C, D, E) also provided by This large panel cells represents exploitable platform order to use them as vitamins’ producers human consumption. study aims integrative overview on content realm, discuss great potential sources different forms be included functional ingredients food nutraceuticals health. We report biological roles microalgae, current knowledge their modulation environmental forcing activity metabolism health protection. Conclusion Finally, we critically challenges promoting a relevant source vitamins, further enhancing interests “biofactory” such cosmeceuticals.

Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is the wastewater produced during palm sterilization process, which contains substantial amounts of nutrients and phosphorous that are harmful to environment. High BOD COD POME as high 100,000 mg/L, endanger Effective pre-treatment required before disposal. As microalgae have ability biosorption on perform photosynthesis, they can be utilized a sustainable treatment operation, contributes effective biofuel production. Microalgae species C. pyrenoidosa has shown achieve 68% lipid production along with 71% nutrient reduction in POME. In this study, brief discussion about impacts will affect environment presented. Additionally, potential treating evaluated its benefits. Furthermore, condition growth also assessed study suitable for cultivated in. Moreover, experimental studies characteristics performance being their feasibility. One profitable applications using production, discussed review. However, advantages brought from cultivating POME, there some concerns, cause pollution if not handled well, last section paper.
