Open pond systems have become an increasingly popular method for the cultivation of microalgae and macroalgae due to their simplicity, low cost, and ease of operation. These systems consist of shallow ponds or raceways that are typically constructed using earthen…
Macroalgae, commonly known as seaweed, are large multicellular algae that grow in marine and freshwater environments. These organisms play a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems, providing habitat for various marine species and serving as a primary food source for many…
Protein is an essential macronutrient that plays a vital role in various biological processes within our body, including muscle growth and repair, immune function, and hormone production. While animal-based protein sources such as meat, poultry, and fish are commonly consumed…
Macroalgae, commonly known as seaweed, are large, multicellular marine plants that play a crucial role in maintaining the health of marine ecosystems. These organisms provide numerous ecological services, such as habitat for various marine species, oxygen production, and nutrient cycling.…
Edible seaweed, also known as macroalgae, has been a staple in the diets of various cultures for centuries. With a rich history in Asian cuisine, particularly in Japan, Korea, and China, seaweed is gaining global popularity for its unique flavors…
Macroalgae, commonly known as seaweed, are large photosynthetic marine organisms that play a vital role in carbon sequestration. Carbon sequestration is the process by which carbon dioxide (CO2) is captured and stored, reducing its concentration in the atmosphere. As a…
Algae, the photosynthetic organisms found in aquatic environments, have been gaining significant attention in recent years due to their potential applications in various industries such as biofuels, bioproducts, pharmaceuticals, and nutrition. The two main types of algae being researched and…
In recent years, the potential of algae cultivation has been recognized as a sustainable alternative to traditional crops. This is particularly true for microalgae and macroalgae, which have numerous advantages over traditional crop cultivation in terms of productivity, sustainability, and…
Macroalgae, commonly known as seaweed, have long been recognized for their rich nutritional content and potential health benefits. In recent years, researchers have increasingly focused on the iodine content of macroalgae, given its crucial role in supporting human health. Iodine…
Centrifugation is a widely used method for harvesting both microalgae and macroalgae biomass, as well as processing algae biofertilizers. This technique separates particles from a solution according to their size, shape, density, and viscosity, by applying a high centrifugal force.…
