Algae frequently get a bad press. Pond slime is a problem in garden pools, algal blooms can produce toxins that incapacitate or kill animals and humans and even the term seaweed is pejorative - a weed being a plant growing in what humans consider to be the wrong place.

Interactions Of Aquatic Macrophytes And Epiphytic Algae In Freshwater Ecosystems [PDF]
PhDThe distribution, population dynamics, photosynthesis and nutrition of epiphytic algae were investigated in natural and artificial freshwater ecosystems, with special reference to interactions between the algae and their macrophytic substrata. The

Physiological adaptation of two unicellular green algae to pH stress. [PDF]
Two marine algae, Dunaliella parva and Chlorococcum submarinum were selected to study the effect of pH stress on single celled algae. D. parva has been well characterised physiologically, but not with regards to pH stress.

Methane production from Sargassum muticum: effects of seasonality and of freshwater washes
Biogas production from Sargassum muticum, an invasive seaweed species to Europe, is hampered by low methane (CH4) yields during anaerobic digestion (AD), but causes are unclear. This research is the first to demonstrate the impact of extensive freshwater

The algal lipids-based biodiesel, albeit having advantages over plant oils, still remains high in the production cost. Co-production of value-added products with lipids has the potential to add benefits and is thus believed to be a promising strategy to ...
