About this book

Eukaryotic Microorganisms as Sources of Bioproducts: From Microalgae and Yeast Cultivation to End-Products, Second Edition examines the cultivation and utilization of microalgae biomass for sustainable fuels and chemicals, bringing together the expertise of authors from different areas and backgrounds. In addition to extensive updates to the first edition, this new edition includes new chapters on yeast, addressing the many challenges with developing novel yeast technology cell factories and bioprocesses. With a strong focus in emerging industrial and large-scale applications, the book summarizes the new achievements in recent years.It includes information on microalgae and yeast cultivation, harvesting, and conversion processes for the production of liquid and gaseous biofuels, such as biogas, bioethanol, biodiesel and biohydrogen. Microalgae biorefinery and biotechnology applications, including in pharmaceuticals, as food and feed, and value added bioproducts are also covered. The comprehensive scope makes it an ideal textbook for graduate and post-graduate courses in algal/yeast biotechnology, while its invaluable insights and guidance on the design of photobioreactors for microalgae mass cultivation and optimization of process strategies for yeast bioproduction will serve as a reference manual professionals and engineers. - Presents the latest information on the uses and untapped potential of microalgae and yeast in the production of bio-based fuels and chemicals - Critically reviews the state-of-the-art feedstock cultivation of biofuels and bioproducts mass production from microalgae and yeast, including intermediate stages, such as harvesting and extraction of specific compounds - Explains the economics and sustainability of large-scale microalgae and yeast cultivation and conversion technologies
