Article Synopsis
- Algae are gaining researchers' interest for producing valuable products and biorefining due to their ability to photosynthesize, adaptability, and capacity to accumulate lipids and carbohydrates.
- Algae biomass is cost-effective, sustainable, and more environmentally friendly compared to other sources, making it a great option for creating biochar with useful properties like high surface area and strong adsorption capacity.
- This technical review focuses on the potential of algae biochar for removing pollutants from wastewater, exploring species-specific adsorption, production methods, and possible modifications to enhance its effectiveness in treating toxic contaminants.
Microbial lipids (bacterial, yeast, or algal) production and its utilization as a feedstock for biodiesel production in a sustainable and economical way along with waste degradation is a promising technology. Oleaginous yeasts have demonstrated multiple advantages over algae and bacteria such as high lipid yields, lipid similarity to vegetable oil, and requirement of lesser area for cultivation. Oleaginous yeasts grown on lignocellulosic solid waste as renewable feedstocks have been widely reported and reviewed.
