Microalgae are microscopic algae, typically found in freshwater and marine systems Microalgae, capable of performing photosynthesis, are important for life on earth; they produce approximately half of the atmospheric oxygen and use simultaneously the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide to grow photoautotrophically The biodiversity of microalgae is enormous and they represent an almost untapped resource In this book, the authors present current research in the study of microalgae, including microalgal biotechnological applications in nutrition, health and the environment; using microalgae biomass for biodiesel and biofuel production and microalgae for aquaculture Chapter - Microalgae (prokaryotic and eukaryotic) consist of a wide range of autotrophic organisms which grow through photosynthesis just like land based plants Their unicellular structure allows them to easily convert solar energy into chemical energy through CO2 fixation and O2 evolution, being well adapted to capture CO2 and store it as biomass Microalgae and cyanobacteria have an interesting and not yet fully exploited potential in biotechnology They can be used to enhance the nutritional value of food and animal feed due to their chemical composition, playing a crucial role in aquaculture Highly valuable molecules like natural dyes (e.g carotenoids), polyunsaturated fatty acids, polysaccharides and vitamins from algal origin are being exploited and can be applied in the nutritional supplements; cosmetics (e.g phycocyanin) and pharmaceuticals In fact, microalgae and cyanobacteria are able to produce several biologically active compounds with reported antifungal, antibacterial, anticancer, antiviral (e.g anti-HIV), immunosuppressive, antiinflamatory and antioxidant activity Nowadays, there is a focus on using microalgae in renewable energy sources and environmental applications Microalgae are a potential source for biofuels production such as biodiesel, bioetanol, biohydrogen and biogas These can be produced through a biorefinery concept, in which every component of the biomass is used to produce usable products This strategy can integrate several different conversion technologies (chemical, biochemical, termochemical and direct combustion) providing a higher cost effective and environmental sustainability for the biofuels production Environmental applications can include CO2 sequestration and wastewater treatment This can be achieved by coupling microalgae production systems with industrial polluting facilities Chapter - Using process modelling tools, the conventional and in-situ transesterification processes for biodiesel production from microalgae biomass was modelled.The raw material and process energy requirements of the up-scaled process were obtained for the different transesterification processes, and a renewability assessment of the various schemes was www.ebook777.com Free ebooks ==> www.ebook777.com viii Melanie N Johansen carried out.The biomass cultivation and biodiesel production process renewability was assessed by comparing the minimum work required to restore the non-renewable resources degraded in the biomass and biodiesel production process with the useful work available from the main process products If the maximum work obtained from the process products is larger than the restoration work, the process is considered as renewable In a present day scenario (with the use of fossil fuel sources for the production of the process raw materials, such as for methanol and sulphuric acid production, and electricity), all the transesterification processes were shown to be non-renewable The influence of the choice of the electricity generation scheme, raw material source and the type of heating fuels (including heating and drying technology) on the process renewability was also examined The process renewability of the in-situ transesterification of microalgae lipids to biodiesel was found to significantly improve with the use of renewable electricity, reacting alcohols from biomass fermentation and heat pump technology to facilitate the biomass drying and process heating Chapter - The ubiquity and persistence of organic pollutants in the aquatic environment are of potential risk to aquatic habitats and human health due to their highly toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic properties Bioremediation, a cost-effective technology to remove organic pollutants from contaminated water bodies, involves a number of biological processes, including accumulation, transformation and degradation, mediated mainly by microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi and microalgae Eukaryotic microalgae are dominant primary producers and play a central role in the fixation and turnover of carbon and other nutrient elements However, their role in the remediation of aquatic contaminants and the relative importance of the processes involved are much less understood, as compared to bacteria and fungi Further, most of the studies on the novel remediation technology using microalgae have concentrated on metals and nutrients and much less on organic pollutants Screening of tolerant species is a crucial step in bioremediation, and the understanding of the response and adaptive changes in microalgal cells to toxicity induced by organic pollutants is equally important as it serves as a scientific basis of remediation practices However, there has been very little published information on the toxicity, resistance and adaptations of microalgae to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) This paper reviews the recent research on the sensitivity, tolerance and adaptations of microalgae to the toxicity of various POPs, including organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and some other emerging environmental endocrine disrupting compounds The review focuses on the physiological and biochemical changes in microalgae and their relationships with tolerance The mechanisms and factors affecting the capacity of microalgal cells to remove POPs, as well as the feasibility, limitations and future research directions of employing microalgae in POPs remediation, are also addressed Chapter - Many analyses have been carried out about the future possibility of exhausting the planet’s resources and its ability to sustain its inhabitants The use of microorganisms and their metabolic products by humans is one of the most significant fields of biotechnology activities Microalgae are descendants of the first photosynthetic life forms More than 3,500 million years ago the oxygen atmosphere was made up by cyanobacteria and other forms of life could evolve Since then, microalgae have contributed to regulating the planet's biosphere The use of solar energy through photosynthesis in microalgae cultivation is a clean, efficient and low cost process, because the sun's energy is virtually free and unlimited The biomass of microalgae and its products are employed in many fields: feed and Free ebooks ==> www.ebook777.com Index Raman spectroscopy, 254, 271 raw materials, viii, 61, 68, 72, 81, 85,
