Production of Renewable Energy Resources via Complex Treatment of Cyanobacteria Biomass

Abstract

The process of cyanobacteria complex treatment via obtaining of inedible fat, suitable for the production of biodiesel and biogas has been investigated. The prospective application of hydrodynamic cavitation to increase the efficiency of inedible fat extraction and biogas synthesis is shown. A comprehensive strategy for the cyanobacteria use in the energy and agricultural technologies is suggested.

Plant and Biomass Extraction and Valorisation under Hydrodynamic Cavitation

“…The production of renewable energy resources such as biodiesel and biogas via the complex treatment of cyanobacteria biomass is a sustainable strategy. HC-based technologies can increase the efficiency of inedible fat extraction [92], since cell disruption is mainly restrained to the cell wall and membrane [9]. Given its energy efficiency, comparable extractability, and scale-up potential, HC may become an industrial-scale method for microalgae extraction [21].…”

Assessment of cyanobacteria biomass recourse potential in Ukrainian internal waters for environmentally friendly target production

“…Biotechnological ways of blue-green algae complex processing and the industries of application of its products. It has been fully studied on using cyanobacteria biomass resource potential of Ukrainian internal waters in energy carriers production technologiesimplementation of methanogenesis technology with obtaining of condensed biogas [1,2,4] and lipid extraction with obtaining of raw material for biodiesel production [4]. It has been proved possibility of receiving condensed organic fertilizers from residual biomass after obtaining of biogas [4], previously conducted studies require generalization and concretization, necessary development of studies for establishing perspective in using cyanobacteria as organic pesticides.…”

“…Additionally cyanobacteria biomass processing aiming to obtain products of different purpose can be relevant for such industry fields as medicine, pharmacology, cosmetology and parfume industry, as well as for agriculture (obtaining of organic-mineral fertilizers and organic pesticides) [3,4].…”

An effective method of preventing surface water bodies pollution by hydrobionts is to collect and use them for the production of energy carriers (biogas, biodiesel) [17,18].…”
