2. Why Choose Microalgae culture or Microalgae as an Ideal biomass? Or Microalgae: advantages and disadvantages The microalgae culture have the infinite potential to be used as primary producers of biomass in coming years‚ eventually they will turn out to be as most significant energy source. They can act as feedstock for several types of renewable fuels such as ethanol‚ methanol‚ biodiesel‚ methane and hydrogen. Table 1 represents certain feedstocks used for biofuel production (Chisti 2007; Dominguez-Faus

24 hour period.” (Pond Life 2001) There are several environmental factors that are essential in maintaining stable pond life. If any of the factors drastically change the results may increase or decrease the life within the pond. If there is more algae sediment in a controlled environment then more protozoa’s will be observed. If the pond water is in a controlled environment‚ then the pond life should remain stable.

In this simulation there are nine different species. The Nori Seaweed‚ Black Pine‚ Coral Weed‚ Mussels‚ Acorn Barnacles‚ Gooseneck Barnacles‚ Whelk‚ Chiton‚ and Starfish. The Nori seaweed‚ Black Pine‚ and Coral Weed are all algae‚ which means they live in damp environments and

Photosynthetic organisms‚ including plants‚ algae‚ and some photosynthetic bacteria‚ efficiently utilize the energy from the sun to convert water and CO2 from the air into biomass. It emphasized the use of photosynthetic organisms from aquatic environments‚ especially species that grow in environments unsuitable for crop production. Early in the project‚ macro algae‚ microalgae‚ and emergent were investigated for their ability to make lipids (as a feedstock for liquid fuel or chemical production)

Bioinformatics – is the application of computational methods to the storage and analysis of biological data Linkage Map – maps the location of several thousand genetic markers on each chromosome Physical Map – Expresses the distance between genetic markers‚ usually as the number of base pairs along the DNA Metagenomics – DNA from a group of species (a metagenome) is collected from an environmental

Identity of Cyanobacterial Toxins Cyanobacterial toxins are toxins produced by cyanobacteria‚ or blue-green algae. They include neurotoxins (e.g.‚ anatoxins)‚ hepatotoxins (e.g.‚ microcystins)‚ skin irritants and other toxins. Both hepatotoxins and neurotoxins are produced by cyanobacteria commonly found in surface water supplies and therefore appear to be of most relevance to water supplies at present.1-3 However‚ the neurotoxins are relatively unstable and‚ as such‚ are not considered to be as

Mastigias papua‚ most commonly known as the “Golden Medusa” or “lagoon jelly” is one of the many jellyfishes in the class Scyphozoa. This species of jellyfish is unique because they can be found in bays‚ lagoons‚ and harbors‚ but are most commonly found in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean. While in its habitat the jellyfish follows the sun from west to east until it reaches the shadows formed by the shore. Since this type of jellyfish has very little muscular movement by itself‚ it must be carried

Whatever they produce‚ they must treat the water before they discharge. In particular chemical plants‚ they must treat their waste water because if they don’t do that and discharge it to the river‚ sooner or later‚ it will have big problems like the blue algae in the Taihu Lake. People must take lessons from it. When the scale of contamination is too large‚ it will be too expensive and even impossible to make the water clean once you contaminate it. Any individual should be a good police in this sense;
