Abstract
The rational and principles of an algae-based integrated industries with multiple sources of revenue are discussed in this presentation. Afer an overview of historical references on algae-based programs, a step-by-step process is described for a high quality efuent and algal biomass with an optimized algal oil and protein content along with the remediation technolgies on wastewater and air pollution remediation. Te dominant strains of algae for different purposes are discussed and a list of some genera including Euglenia, Scenedesmus, Selenastrum, Chlamydomonas and Actinastrum are suggested as candidates for large-scale culturing based and their ability to strip nutrients and organic matter from wastewater and polluted air, growing rapidly and producing a signifcant level of oil and protein. Te fnal part of the presentation deals with Supercritical Fluid Extraction as an efcient means of isolating algal oil and other commercially important compounds from algal biomass.
