The nutritional benefits of algae and its potential in the food industry have sparked increasing interest among researchers, nutritionists, and food manufacturers. Algae, particularly microalgae, are rich in proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, and essential fatty acids, making them an excellent source…
Fucoidans are complex polysaccharides found in the cell walls of brown algae and have recently gained attention for their potential bioactive properties. These sulfated polysaccharides are mainly composed of L-fucose and sulfate groups, with some variations in their structure depending…
Heavy metal-contaminated soils are a significant environmental concern due to their potential impact on human health and ecosystems. These contaminants can enter the food chain through plants, which can then be consumed by animals and humans. Soil remediation and reclamation…
Algae biofuels have gained significant attention in recent years as a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional fossil fuels. With their high growth rates, ability to produce valuable lipids, and relatively low resource requirements, algae have the potential to…
Algae-based soil remediation has emerged as a promising and eco-friendly technique for addressing soil pollution caused by heavy metals, organic compounds, and other contaminants. This approach relies on the natural ability of algae to absorb and transform pollutants into less…
Carbon capture and utilization (CCU) is a promising technology that captures carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from industrial processes and converts them into valuable products such as chemicals, fuels, and materials. This not only helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions but…
The global demand for energy is constantly increasing, and with the depletion of fossil fuels and the environmental concerns associated with their use, there is a pressing need for alternative sources of energy. Algae bioenergy has emerged as a promising…
As the global demand for energy continues to grow, researchers and industries are constantly seeking alternative, sustainable sources of fuel. One promising candidate for biofuel production is algae, which can be converted into biodiesel through a process called transesterification. Algae-derived…
Algae have been playing a crucial role in wastewater treatment plants for nutrient removal, especially in the context of the integration of algae harvesting with wastewater treatment and carbon capture. The process of utilizing algae for wastewater treatment is known…
