Journal ArticleDOI
Algal bioremediation of waste waters from land-based aquaculture using ulva: selecting target species and strains.
TL;DR: The fast growth rates and broad geographical distribution of U. ohnoi make this an ideal species to target for bioremediation activities at land-based aquaculture facilities in Eastern Australia and there was no clearly identifiable competitive strain of filamentous Ulva.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochar from commercially cultivated seaweed for soil amelioration
TL;DR: It is found that seaweed biochar is a unique material for soil amelioration that is consistently different to biochar derived from ligno-cellulosic feedstock.
Journal ArticleDOI
The intensive land-based production of the green seaweeds Derbesia tenuissima and Ulva ohnoi: biomass and bioproducts
TL;DR: Both green seaweeds Derbesia tenuissima and Ulva ohnoi are potential bioresources for the extraction of proteins (amino acids) and offer niche opportunities to deliver multiple products through a biorefinery process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Algal biochar: effects and applications
Michael I. Bird,Christopher M. Wurster,Pedro H. de Paula Silva,Nicholas A. Paul,Rocky de Nys +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report experiments conducted on the production of freshwater and saltwater macroalgal biochar in pilot-scale quantities, the physical and chemical characteristics of the biochars, and their impact on plant growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of bioactives from the red seaweed Asparagopsis taxiformis that promote antimethanogenic activity in vitro
Lorenna Machado,Marie Magnusson,Nicholas A. Paul,Robert D. Kinley,Rocky de Nys,Nigel W. Tomkins +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the main bioactive natural products and their effects on fermentation using rumen fluid from Bos indicus steers were tested and the dichloromethane extract was most active, reducing methane production by 79%.
