Potentials of macroalgae as feedstocks for biorefinery

open access: yesBioresource Technology, 2013
Macroalgae, so-called seaweeds, have recently attracted attention as a possible feedstock for biorefinery. Since macroalgae contain various carbohydrates (which are distinctively different from those of terrestrial biomasses), thorough assessments of macroalgae-based refinery are essential to determine whether applying terrestrial-based technologies to

Ecophysiology of photosynthesis in macroalgae

open access: yesPhotosynthesis Research, 2012
Macroalgae occur in the marine benthos from the upper intertidal to depths of more than 200 m, contributing up to 1 Pg C per year to global primary productivity. Freshwater macroalgae are mainly green (Chlorophyta) with some red (Rhodophyta) and a small contribution of brown (Phaeophyceae) algae, while in the ocean all three higher taxa are important ...

Plastic debris in coastal macroalgae

Environmental Research, 2022
Macroalgae are the most productive marine macrophytes in the coastal ecosystem. Although plastic debris has been ubiquitously detected in marine animals, little is known about plastic pollution in macroalgae and how they interact with each other. In this study, the occurrence of plastic debris including microplastics was investigated in 5 macroalgae ...

Macroalgae and Cyanobacteria

2020
Macroalgae (fleshy and calcareous seaweeds), along with sponges, stony and soft corals, hydroids, bryozoans, and tube-building polychaete worms are the critical building blocks of biological habitats of nearshore hardbottom reefs of east Florida. Physical characteristics of these foundation species enhance available shelter for fish and invertebrates ...

Cytokinins in macroalgae

Plant Growth Regulation, 2003
Thirty-one seaweeds were collected from the warmer KwaZulu-Natal coast and the cooler Cape waters (South Africa). Plant material was extracted with 70% ethanol supplemented with deuterium labelled standards of all known isoprenoid cytokinins.

Biosorption of cadmium with brown macroalgae

Chemosphere, 2015
Sorption experiments for cadmium removal using two brown macroalgae Lessonia nigrescens and Durvillaea antarctica were carried out. Although both types of algae were capable of retaining cadmium, differences in their performance were observed. The optimum pH was 3.7±0.2, and to achieve the equilibrium, 5 days of contact time were necessary for both ...

Banded structure of drifting macroalgae

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2009
A massive bloom of macroalgae occurred in the western Yellow Sea at the end of May, 2008, and lasted for nearly 2 months. The surface-drifting macroalgae was observed to accumulate in a pattern dominated by linear bands. The maximum length of individual algal bands exceeded 10 km and the distance between neighboring bands ranged from hundreds of meters

Biofuels From Macroalgae

2022
The steep rise in human population together with the simultaneous growth of urbanization and industrialization has triggered overuse of fossil fuels in the recent years. However, they are non-renewable and release carbon dioxide causing global warming.
