Microalgae Biotechnology in Integrated Processes
Journal Title: Journal of Chemical Engineering & Process Technology - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 5
Abstract
The bio-based processes have been an essential support in the consolidation of new technologies in the industry. The current scenario for the use of more sustainable production methods, i.e., with a lower carbon and water footprint, dependence on fossil fuels and energy, more efficient and economical, further highlight the role that biological and chemical industries can play in this field
