Key Findings of the Study

DEVELOPMENT OF NEW INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY FOR MICROALGAE PRODUCTS

Microalgae growth and its content extraction are crucial processes in dilute state cultivation. Microalgae cultivation poses several challenges because of its small size. Growing for economic purposes and processing it into biofuels becomes quite problematic. The major problems associated with microalgae production are strain selection, strain improvement, the inefficient quantity of sunlight present while microalgae are culturing in ponds, enhanced need to remove large water volumes to obtain concentrates. These obstacles demand the appropriate technological advancements and scientific innovation for producing microalgae and its conversion to required products. As the market players are using technologically advanced cultural methods and innovative technologies for the production formation of microalgae, it is boosting the microalgae market growth.
