About the Book

Eukaryotic Microorganisms as Sources of Bioproducts: From Microalgae and Yeast Cultivation to End-Products, Second Edition examines the cultivation and utilization of microalgae biomass for sustainable fuels and chemicals, bringing together the expertise of authors from different areas and backgrounds. In addition to extensive updates to the first edition, this new edition includes new chapters on yeast, addressing the many challenges with developing novel yeast technology cell factories and bioprocesses. With a strong focus in emerging industrial and large-scale applications, the book summarizes the new achievements in recent years. It includes information on microalgae and yeast cultivation, harvesting, and conversion processes for the production of liquid and gaseous biofuels, such as biogas, bioethanol, biodiesel and biohydrogen. Microalgae biorefinery and biotechnology applications, including in pharmaceuticals, as food and feed, and value added bioproducts are also covered. The comprehensive scope makes it an ideal textbook for graduate and post-graduate courses in algal/yeast biotechnology, while its invaluable insights and guidance on the design of photobioreactors for microalgae mass cultivation and optimization of process strategies for yeast bioproduction will serve as a reference manual professionals and engineers.

Table of Contents:
1. Photobioreactors for the production of microalgae 2. Heterotrophic and mixotrophic microalgae cultivation 3. Microalgae cultivation in wastewater 4. Applications of genome-scale metabolic models to microalgae and cyanobacteria production systems 5. Harvesting of microalgae: overview of process options and their strengths and drawbacks 6. Cell Disruption Technologies 7. Biogas production from microalgae 8. Breakthroughs in bio-alcohol production from microalgae: Solving the hurdles 9. Biohydrogen production from microalgae 10. Biodiesel from Microalgae 11. Pyrolysis of microalgae for fuel production 12. Biogas upgrading using algal-bacterial processes 13. Synthetic biology of cyanobacteria for production of biofuels and high-value products 14. Biorefinery of algae: Technical and economic considerations 15. Microalgal proteins for food and feed 16. Microalgal Fatty acids-from harvesting till extraction 17. Cyanobacterial toxins as a high value added product 18. Trends in Red Biotechnology: Microalgae for Pharmaceutical Applications 19. Extraction of added-value compounds from microalgae 20. Economics of Microalgae Cultivation 21. Environmental impacts of mass-scale algae cultivation

About the Author :
Cristina Gonzalez-Fernandez received her PhD degree in Chemical Engineering and Environmental Technology at the University of Valladolid (2008). She carried out her doctoral thesis in the field of livestock wastes treatment for the removal of organic matter by means of mechanical and photosynthetic oxygenation on the liquid matrix and biogas production on the solid matrix. Previously to that, she worked at the Environmental Engineering Department in the University of Cincinnati (USA) where she also obtained a Master on Environmental Science (2005). She got a postdoc position at the Biotechnology Lab in the French National Institute for Agricultural Research (LBE-INRA, France) to work on the optimization of biogas production using microalgae. Nowadays, her research is focused on the recovery of carbon from wastes via biotechnological means. She is co-author of around 100 scientific publications and reviewer of international journals. Additionally, she has been involved in European and national funded research projects, as well as projects with private companies. She has supervised 5 PhD Thesis, and 20 Master Thesis and Final Year Projects. Today, Cristina González is Associate Professor at the Dept. of Chemical Engineering and Environmental Technology of Valladolid University. Dr. Tomás-Pejó received her PhD with International Mention from the Universidad Complutense of Madrid in 2009. After that, she worked as a post-doctoral researcher at CIEMAT for one year and joined the Industrial Biotechnology Group at Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden) for 3 years. In 2014, she was awarded a MARIE Curie-AMAROUT grant to join the Biotechnological Processes Unit at IMDEA Energy where she is now permanent Senior Assistant Researcher and Ramón y Cajal Fellow. Dr. Tomás-Pejó has authored more than 70 publications and is co-inventor of 2 patents. She is a member of the Editorial Board of the Journal FEMS Yeast Research and Associate Editor of Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts. She has been a member of the Evaluation Committee in 3 PhD defenses and Member of the Scientific Advisory Board of 4 International Conferences. Dr. Tomás-Pejó has supervised 3 PhD students and is currently supervising 3 more. She has participated in more than 20 R&D projects, has been principal investigator of 3 national projects and coordinator of 1 MSCA doctoral network. Dr. Tomás-Pejó is chairing the COST Action YEAST4BIO “Non-conventional yeast for the production of bioproducts” (2019-2024), which already involves more than 150 scientists from 34 countries.
