Oleaginous microalgae and yeast are of increasing interest as a renewable resource for single cell oils (SCOs). These have applications in fuels, feed and food products. In order to become cost competitive with existing terrestrial oils, a biorefinery approach is often taken where several product streams are valorised alongside the SCO. Whilst many life cycle assessment (LCA) and Techno-economic (TEA) studies have employed this biorefinery approach to SCO production, a systematic analysis of their implications is missing. This review evaluates the economic and environmental impacts associated with the use of coproducts. Overall, protein production plays the greatest role in determining viability, with coproduct strategy crucial to considering in the early stages of research and development.

“…There is therefore a need to explore other sustainable methods of desalination of seawater to expand its use in industry, aquaculture and agriculture. Many species of microalgae, especially marine microalgae can grow in seawater to reduce the salinity (Xiang et al, 2017;Molino et al, 2019;Marella and Tiwari, 2020). However, there are many freshwater species of microalgae that have been extensively investigated for production of various useful metabolites, ranging from bioenergy (Eze et al, 2017;Ogbonna et al, 2018;Deshmukh et al, 2019;Okpozu et al, 2019) to many pharmaceutical and bioactive compounds (Hata et al, 2001;Fujita et al, 2009;Durga et al, 2017).…”

The abilities of three species of freshwater microalgae to grow in, and desalinate untreated and undiluted seawater were investigated. The salinities of the seawater were reduced from 37.5g/L to 26.25 ± 1.33, 27.19 ± 1.33 and 30.0 ± 0.00 g/L by Desmodesmus subspicatus LC172266, Desmodesmus armatus LC172263 and Dictyosphaerium spp. LC172264 on the fourth, eighth and tenth week of the experiment, respectively, while the control had no change in the salinity. D. subspicatus cell concentration initially dropped from 1.25 × 106 cells/ml to 9.68 × 105 cells/ml and then gradually increased to 4.86 × 107 cells/ml by the tenth week. With D. armatus and Dictyosphaerium spp., the cell concentrations increased steadily from 1.25 × 106 cells/ml to 4.97 × 108 cells/ml and 3.25 × 108 cells/ml, respectively. There were increases in the pH during desalination by the three species. This demonstrates the halotolerant potentials of these species and their abilities to reduce the salinity of seawater.

“…One problem is, that glucosamine bound in chitin or chitosan is not readily accessible: Currently, most glucosamine is produced by acidic or enzymatic hydrolysis of chitin from shrimp shells or crabs 6,7 . Glucosamine production also faces some problems as raw materials 8 and enzymes 9 are limited and some people show allergic reactions to shellfish 10 .…”

As one of the most frequently occurring monomers in the biosphere, glucosamine is a valuable metabolite for several applications. Although microbial glucosamine production is still in its infancy, it offers the possibility to circumvent problems associated with traditional production by hydrolysis. Of particular interest is a study with Aspergillus niger , which reports for the first time high glucosamine excretion in the early phase of citric acid production. These results have relevance for both the commercial glucosamine production and deeper insight into the regulation of organic acid excretion in fungi. To investigate glucosamine excretion, we performed bioreactor batch cultivations with Penicillium ochrochloron CBS123.824 and A . niger CBS120.49 using cultivation conditions which are known to trigger the production of citric acid. Glucosamine detection in culture filtrates was achieved by two photometric methods, High performance liquid chromatography with evaporative light scattering detection (HPLC-ELSD) and HPLC with mass spectrometry detection (HPLC-MS). Surprisingly, we detected no glucosamine at all. Based on a critical review of published data for A . niger , we conclude that the reported high levels of excreted glucosamine might be an experimental artifact. However, growth experiments with glucosamine as a combined or single source for carbon or nitrogen showed that both organisms are in principle able to transport glucosamine across their plasma membrane, which is a prerequisite for the excretion of glucosamine.
