TL;DR: Application of a bio-refinery concept could increase the economical value of the U. lactuca biomass as well as improve its suitability for production of bioenergy.

TL;DR: The seaweed aquaculture can also contribute to climate change adaptation by damping wave energy and protecting shorelines, and by elevating pH and supplying oxygen to the waters, thereby locally reducing the effects of ocean acidification and deoxygenation as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: The results of a comprehensive mapping and detailed characterisation of the algae production at the European scale, encompassing macroalgae, microalgae and the cyanobacteria Spirulina, were presented and analyzed in this paper.

TL;DR: Investigation of the potential of liquid manure as sole nutrient source for cultivation of Ulva lactuca found that at higher manure concentrations, tissue concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus, proteins, and amino acids increased, making the biomass less suitable for anaerobic digestion but potentially interesting as a feed supplement.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that scaling up seaweed aquaculture is needed to accommodate the 9+ billion people expected by 2050 and to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
