Description



About the Book



Blue Bioeconomy looks at the potential for compounds sourced from marine biomass and microorganisms as sustainable feedstocks for various industries.



Book Synopsis



The marine environment is an abundant source of organisms which are rich in functional/bioactive compounds. Many of these compounds exhibit a remarkable potential for medical, industrial and biotechnological applications. Handled appropriately, with a focus on sustainability, these organisms and compounds can offer new and renewable feedstocks for a variety of industries. The biomass from marine organisms also offers opportunities for clean and sustainable fuel generation, carbon sequestration and wastewater remediation.

Focusing on the use of biomass from marine algae (both macro and micro), bacteria and yeasts this book looks at opportunities for producing high value chemicals with applications across multiple industries. It is an essential read for researchers interested in innovative, green feedstock sources, sustainability and the circular economy.
