Sustainable Industrial Processes based on Microalgae addresses the current applications and potential uses of microalgae for processing waste and wastewater streams, along with potential applications of the produced biomass. Each chapter explores the different steps of the subject, from the importance of selecting a robust strain that is able to adapt to harsh and changing environmental conditions, to production and harvesting technologies, and end applications of the produce biomass, namely agriculture and feed production. It covers microalgae biology, common microalgal strains used for waste and wastewater treatment, cultivation strategies, novel extraction techniques, safety issues, and current market opportunities and challenges. Moreover, the book explores the potential utilization of the produced biomass focusing on industries that show higher potential such as agriculture and feed production. - Gives insights in sustainable, energy sufficient and economically-viable microalgae-based processes - Applies microalgal biomass to produce high value biopesticides, bio-stimulants and animal feeds/feed ingredients - Discusses current challenges such as the need for large surface areas and provides suggestions to overcome these challenges

This book presents the Proceedings of the International Conference on Sustainable and Digital Building, at Marinha Grande, Portugal held in October 2022. The Conference created a forum for discussion of a range topics on this broad area, including building materials, building processes, digital technologies, and building sustainability. A major focus of the collection is green building throughout a structure’s life-cycle—from planning to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, and demolition. In addition, the Conference examined industry making the transition to digital transformation of buildings, a key benchmark to realizing European climate goals and achieving net-zero carbon buildings by 2050.
