Anaerobic digestion of microalgae residues resulting from the biodiesel production process
TLDR
The recovery of methane from post transesterified microalgae residues has the potential to improve the renewability of the ‘microalgae biomass to biodiesel’ conversion process as well as reduce its cost and environmental impact.About:

Journal Article
From tiny microalgae to huge biorefineries
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present examples of experimental microalgae-based biorefineries grown in an autotrophic mode at a laboratory scale, and show that the results of these experiments can be used for real-world applications such as water stream bioremediation and carbon dioxide mitigation.
Integrated Algae Cultivation for Biofuels Production in Industrial Clusters
TL;DR: In this paper, a thorough literature survey has been conducted in order to assess the state-of-the-art in algae bio-fuels production and the importance of a supplementary function in conjunction with algae cultivation and therefore algae cultivation for municipal wastewater treatment and capturing CO2 emissions from industry was included in the study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Innovative operational strategies for biogas plant including temperature and stirring management
TL;DR: The research aimed at finding the optimum operational conditions in a large-scale biogas plant located in Lower Saxony, Germany, which started operation in 2011 and led to an increase in specific electricity yield and a decrease in internal energy consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anaerobic digestion of cyanobacteria and chlorella to produce methane for biofuel
TL;DR: The methane potentials of cyanobacteria and chlorella have been investigated in eight different lab scale reactors at 25 different temperatures and conditions.
Dissertation
Mass spectrometry based hyphenated techniques for microalgal and mammalian metabolomics.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a list of publications, abbreviations, figures, tables, and documents for oral and poster presentations, and lists of abbreviations and figures. But they do not provide any tables.

Book
Standard methods for the examination of water and wastewater
TL;DR: The most widely read reference in the water industry, Water Industry Reference as discussed by the authors, is a comprehensive reference tool for water analysis methods that covers all aspects of USEPA-approved water analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodiesel from microalgae.
TL;DR: As demonstrated here, microalgae appear to be the only source of renewable biodiesel that is capable of meeting the global demand for transport fuels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microalgal triacylglycerols as feedstocks for biofuel production: perspectives and advances
Qiang Hu,Milton Sommerfeld,Eric E. Jarvis,Maria L. Ghirardi,Matthew C. Posewitz,Michael Seibert,Aldis Darzins +6 more
TL;DR: A brief summary of the current knowledge on oleaginous algae and their fatty acid and TAG biosynthesis, algal model systems and genomic approaches to a better understanding of TAG production, and a historical perspective and path forward for microalgae-based biofuel research and commercialization are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodiesel from microalgae beats bioethanol.
TL;DR: Biodiesel from microalgae seems to be the only renewable biofuel that has the potential to completely displace petroleum-derived transport fuels without adversely affecting supply of food and other crop products.
