Laura Garcia Alba,Cristian Torri,Chiara Samorì,Jaapjan van der Spek,Daniele Fabbri,Sascha R.A. Kersten,Derk Willem Frederik Brilman +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the potential of the hydrothermal treatment (HTT) technology as a process to convert algae and algal debris into a liquid fuel, within a sustainable algae biorefinery concept in which high value products are coproduced, nutrients and water are recycled, and the use of fossil energy is minimized.
