Sustainable Industrial Processes Based on Microalgae
Sustainable Industrial Processes based on Microalgae addresses the current applications and potential uses of microalgae for processing waste and wastewater streams, along with potential applications of the produced biomass. Each chapter explores the different steps of the subject, from the importance of selecting a robust strain that is able to adapt to harsh and changing environmental conditions, to production and harvesting technologies, and end applications of the produce biomass, namely agriculture and feed production. It covers microalgae biology, common microalgal strains used for waste and wastewater treatment, cultivation strategies, novel extraction techniques, safety issues, and c...
CONTROLO 2020
This book offers a timely and comprehensive snapshot of research and developments in the field of control engineering. Covering a wide range of theoretical and practical issues, the contributions describes a number of different control approaches, such adaptive control, fuzzy and neuro-fuzzy control, remote and robust control systems, real time an fault tolerant control, among others. Sensors and actuators, measurement systems, renewable energy systems, aerospace systems as well as industrial control and automation, are also comprehensively covered. Based on the proceedings of the 14th APCA International Conference on Automatic Control and Soft Computing, held on July 1-3, 2020, in Bragança, Portugal, the book offers a timely and thoroughly survey of the latest research in the field of control, and a source of inspiration for researchers and professionals worldwide.

Biocrust-forming cyanobacteria inoculation to restore degraded soils from dryland ecosystems
En las zonas áridas, la acción combinada del cambio climático y el aumento de la presión humana están causando una degradación acelerada de los ecosistemas. En este contexto, es necesario investigar nuevas estrategias de restauración que nos permitan mejorar las acciones de restauración en estas zonas. Para ello, en esta tesis se exploró el uso de biocostras, comunidades de organismos que colonizan los primeros centímetros del suelo y que viven en estrecha asociación con las partículas del suelo, para la recuperación de suelos degradados en ecosistemas áridos. De entre todos sus componentes, se investigó el potencial uso restaurador de la inoculación con especies de cianobact...
CO2 Biofixation by Microalgae
Due to the consequences of globa l warming and significant greenhouse gas emissions, several ideas have been studied to reduce these emissions or to suggest solut ions for pollutant remov al. The most promising ideas are reduced consumption, waste recovery and waste treatment by biological systems. In this latter category, studies have demonstrated that the use of microalgae is a very promising solution for the biofixation of carbon dioxide. In fact, these micro-organisms are able to offset high levels of CO2 thanks to photosynthesis. Microalgae are also used in various fields (food industry, fertilizers, biofuel, etc.). To obtain a n optimal C O2 sequestration us ing micr oal gae, their cul...
Scale-Up Processes
Common scale-up methods are conventional where the blind piloting is essential. This imposes huge investment and leads to failures mostly in solid processing. However, the limitations of resources, current shortcomings, short time-to-market demand are forced companies to minimize piloting. With these situations in mind, current digitalization outlook and computational facilities, we proposed and developed a novel iterative scale up method with case studies which highly expedites the process innovation through the following key sequences:
Algal Biorefineries
This book reviews efforts to produce chemicals and fuels from forest and plant products, agricultural residues and more. Algae can potentially capture solar energy and atmospheric CO2; the book details needed research and legislative initiatives.
Sustainable Biotechnology
Sustainable Biotechnology; Sources of Renewable Energy draws on the vast body of knowledge about renewable resources for biofuel research, with the aim to bridge the technology gap and focus on critical aspects of lignocellulosic biomolecules and the respective mechanisms regulating their bioconversion to liquid fuels and other value-added products. This book is a collection of outstanding research reports and reviews elucidating several broad-ranging areas of progress and challenges in the utilization of sustainable resources of renewable energy, especially in biofuels.
Biorefinery of Industrial Effluents for a Sustainable Circular Economy
Bio-Refinery of Industrial Effluents for a Sustainable Circular Economy provides a combined approach between environmental engineering, which involves the improvement of the natural environment or remediation of polluted sites. In addition, it discusses bioprocess engineering involving the development of processes for the manufacture of products from biological materials to produce a valuable bioproduct. This book covers knowledge on sources, impacts, and applications of industrial effluents that could potentially be used as feedstock for the IEB with examples of applied research that demonstrates the relationship between the effluents, biorefinery, treatment and bioproduct recovery.
