ABSTRACT: Microalgae cultivated in wastewater hold promise as a substrate for biohydrogen (bioH2) production. However, their rigid cell walls pose a challenge to fermentability. In this context, this study evaluated hydrothermal pretreatment with niobium phosphate (NbP) at 100-180 degrees C for 0-70 min, using up to 75 % NbP (relative to the dry weight of microalgal biomass). The hydrothermal pretreatment at 18...
ABSTRACT: Microalgae represent a promising feedstock for the sustainable production of bioproducts and bioenergy, due to their versatile biochemical composition and environmental adaptability. Given the wide range of bioproducts that can be derived from their biomass, its biochemical composition suggests more favorable conversion routes and can be enhanced through cultivation conditions focused on the synthesis...
