Production and harvesting of microalgae for wastewater treatment, biofuels, and bioproducts
Logan Christenson,Ronald C. Sims +1 more
TL;DR: Further investigation and development of large-scale production and harvesting methods for biofuels and bioproducts are necessary, particularly with less studied but promising approaches such as those involving attached algal biofilm cultures.

Anaerobic co-digestion of algal sludge and waste paper to produce methane.
Hong-Wei Yen,David E. Brune +1 more
TL;DR: Results suggested an optimum C/N ratio for co-digestion of algal sludge and waste paper was in the range of 20-25/1.

Integrated CO2 capture, wastewater treatment and biofuel production by microalgae culturing—A review
TL;DR: This article presents a critical review, focusing on various microalgae species that consume CO2 and nutrients from wastewater, and provide high quality biofuel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Treatment of dairy manure effluent using freshwater algae: algal productivity and recovery of manure nutrients using pilot-scale algal turf scrubbers.
TL;DR: Projected annual operational costs are very high on a per animal basis ($780 per cow) and within the context of reducing nutrient inputs in sensitive watersheds such as the Chesapeake Bay, projected operational costs of $11 per kgN are well below the costs cited for upgrading existing water treatment plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sustainable biofuels from algae
TL;DR: The issue of sustainability of commercial-scale microalgae production of biofuels with particular focus on land, water, nutrients (N and P) and CO2 requirements is discussed and some of the key issues in the very large scale culture ofmicroalgae which is required for biofuel production are highlighted.

Look Back at the U.S. Department of Energy's Aquatic Species Program: Biodiesel from Algae; Close-Out Report
TL;DR: The Aquatic Species Program (ASP) as mentioned in this paper was a relatively small research effort intended to look at the use of aquatic plants as sources of energy, with an emphasis on algae for biodiesel production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodiversity and application of microalgae
TL;DR: The algae are a polyphyletic, artificial assemblage of O2-evolving, photosynthetic organisms (and secondarily nonphotosynthetic evolutionary descendants) that includes seaweeds (macroalgae) and a highly diverse group of microorganisms known as microalgae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wastewater treatment with suspended and nonsuspended algae
TL;DR: The use of algae in advanced treatment of wastewater is focused on, comment on some of the advantages and disadvantages of this biotechnology, and suggest the likely direction of future research in this area.
