Valorisation of Microalgal Biomass and Wastewater Treatment provides tools, data and case studies to show the reader how to adapt algal biomass into valuable products like biofuels, food, fertilizers, etc. Valorisation has several advantages over conventional bioremediation processes as it helps reduce the costs of bioprocesses. Throughout the book, examples are provided of several successfully commercialized technologies, giving insight into developing, potential processes for valorisation of different biomasses. Wastewater treatment by microalgae generates the biomass, which could be utilized for developing various other products, such as agricultural fertilizers, and biofuel production. Various other processes like pyrolysis, hydrothermal liquefaction, and syngas are also covered. Valorisation of Microalgal Biomass and Wastewater Treatment will equip researchers and policymakers in the energy sector with the scientific methodology and metrics needed to develop strategies for a viable biofuel transition. It will be a key resource for students, researchers, and practitioners seeking to deepen their knowledge on energy planning, current, and future trends of biofuel and wastewater treatment.
