Analysis of Water Footprint of a Photobioreactor Microalgae Biofuel 1 Production System from Blue, Green and Lifecycle Perspectives
8 Microalgae are currently being investigated as a feedstock for the commercial production of 9 transportation fuels, due to their potential scalability and sustainability advantages over conventional 10 feedstocks. The water consumption of microalgae has been postulated to be a resource barrier for 11 large-scale production. This study presents an assessment of the water footprint (WF) of a cl...
متن کاملThe water footprint of biofuels from microalgae
Microalgae are receiving much interest as a possible biofuels feedstock, resulting in increasing research and development efforts. Biofuels from microalgae are potentially important sources of liquid renewable energy carriers, replacing petrol. Algae are not produced on a large-scale yet, but research shows promising results. Biofuel production needs water, an increasingly scarce resource. The ...
متن کاملGreen microalgae biomolecule separations and recovery
Microalgae biomass has garnered significant attention as a renewable energy feedstock and alternative to petroleumbased fuels. The diverse metabolism of green microalgae species additionally provides opportunities for recovery of products for feed, food, nutraceutical, cosmetic, and biopharmaceutical industries. Recently, the concept of using microalgae as part of a biorefinery model has been a...
متن کاملWater monitoring: automated and real time identification and classification of algae using digital microscopy.
Microalgae are unicellular photoautotrophs that grow in any habitat from fresh and saline water bodies, to hot springs and ice. Microalgae can be used as indicators to monitor water ecosystem conditions. These organisms react quickly and predictably to a broad range of environmental stressors, thus providing early signals of a changing environment. When grown extensively, microalgae may produce...
متن کاملModelling green microalgal growth, nutrient uptake and storage in the ASM framework
Recent research focuses on the development of cost-effective ways to recover nutrients, energy and fresh water from wastewater. Microalgal photobioreactors (PBRs) coupled with wastewater treatment processes offer an opportunity for efficient resource recovery. Several models with different complexities have been developed to simulate microalgal growth. However, none of these models can effectiv...
