The Handbook of Microalgae-Based Processes and Products: Fundamentals and Advances in Energy, Food, Feed, Fertilizer, and Bioactive Compounds, Second Edition is an essential resource for understanding commercial-scale microalgae production and utilization. Covering the fundamentals, processes, products, engineering approaches, and advancements in microalgae technology, this comprehensive guide explores microbiology, metabolic aspects, production systems, wastewater treatment, CO₂ capture, and harvesting techniques. It provides detailed insights into biogas, biodiesel, bioethanol, biohydrogen, single-cell protein, biofertilizers, and many other microalgal products. Moreover, the book discusses the engineering tools applied to microalgae biotechnology, such as process integration, intensification, techno-economic analysis, biorefineries, and lifecycle assessment.

Finally, it addresses industrial applications and sustainable development, making it invaluable for researchers, students, and professionals in bioenergy, biomass, and high-value compounds. The holistic coverage of microalgae processes and products positions this handbook as a critical reference for engineering and bio-based industry planning.
