Based on this assessment, the authors explore the great scientific, industrial and economic potential opened up by algae biotechnology. The first part of the book presents recent developments in key enabling technologies, which are the driving force to unleash the enormous potential of algae biotechnology. The second part of the book focuses on how practical applications of algae biotechnology may provide new solutions to some of the grand challenges of the 21st century. Algae offer great potential to support the building of a bio-based economy and they can contribute new solutions to some of the grand challenges of the 21st century. Despite significant progress, algae biotechnology is yet far from fulfilling its potential. How to unleash this enormous potential is the challenge that the own field is facing. New cultivation technologies and bioprocess engineering allow for optimization of the operation strategy of state-of the art industrial-scale production systems and they reduce the production costs. Parallel to this, new molecular technologies for genetic and metabolic engineering of (micro)algae develop quickly. The optimization of existing biochemical pathways or the introduction of pathway components makes high-yield production of specific metabolites possible. Novel screening technologies including high-throughput technologies enables testing of extremely large numbers of samples and, thus, allow for large scale modelling of biomolecular processes, which would have not been possible in the past. Moreover, profitable production can demand for integrated biorefining, which combines consecutive processes and various feedstocks to produce both transportation fuel, electric energy and valuable chemicals. 410 0$aGrand Challenges in Biology and Biotechnology,$x2367-1017 606 $aMicrobial genetics 606 $aMicrobial genomics 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aAlgues$2thub 606 $aBiotecnologia vegetal$2thub 606 $aMicrobial Genetics and Genomics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L32010 606 $aApplied Microbiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C12010 606 $aEukaryotic Microbiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L23020 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aMicrobial genetics. 615 0$aMicrobial genomics. 615 0$aMicrobiology. 615 7$aAlgues 615 7$aBiotecnologia vegetal 615 14$aMicrobial Genetics and Genomics. 615 24$aApplied Microbiology. 615 24$aEukaryotic Microbiology. 676 $a579.8 676 $a660.6 (edition:23) 702 $aHallmann$b Armin$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aRampelotto$b Pabulo H.$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910373897803321 996 $aGrand Challenges in Algae Biotechnology$92140559 997 $aUNINA
