Micro-Algal Production for Biomass and High-Value Products

Microalgae are of particular interest as sources for biofuel because they do not compete with agriculture for resources. This book reviews the latest technologies of algal biomass production, including strain selection, algal culture, harvesting, and processing, as well as an economic analysis of algae biomass. The book also explores novel uses for biomass products and addresses other key issues, such as market and supply chain analysis, business strategies, legal issues, and future prospects in algae biomass research.
