Microalgae as Sources of Carotenoids [PDF]

Marine Drugs, 2011
Marine microalgae constitute a natural source of a variety of drugs for pharmaceutical, food and cosmetic applications—which encompass carotenoids, among others. A growing body of experimental evidence has confirmed that these compounds can play important roles in prevention (and even treatment) of human diseases and health conditions, e.g., cancer ...

Advancements in CO2 Capture Technologies: A Review of Amine Absorption and Alternative Methods for Post‐Combustion Integration

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carbon capture technologies are poised to become one of the primary focuses regarding the achievement of net‐zero emissions by the year 2050. In these technologies, particular attention is given to post‐combustion CO2 capture, which is more easily implemented at existing power stations and other industries.

Synergistic Advanced Oxidation and Physicochemical Treatment Strategies for Antibiotic Removal and Resistance Mitigation in Water

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of antibiotics in water not only causes environmental pollution but also increases the growth of antibiotic‐resistant bacterial genes, which pose serious threats to human beings and other water residents. Large numbers of people are reportedly affected by the resistant bacterial genes, as many broad‐spectrum antibiotics are not ...

Performance Assessment and Lab‐Scale Economic Evaluation of Alkaline Extraction and Comparative Precipitation of Cyanobacterial Proteins

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Algal proteins from cyanobacteria serve as a natural source of biopolymers. The principal challenge manifests as nonoptimization of unit operations in downstream process accounting for higher costs. This study focuses on process assessment of unit‐operations for selecting suitable recovery strategies not only based on yield, but also considers
