The subject of environmental phycology is widely researched and is currently of high interest among algal and biotechnology researchers. This unique new book, Environmental Phycology: Climate Change Mitigation and Hazardous Pollutant Cleanup Using Algal Resource, , explores the different approaches for the mitigation of climate change and environmental cleanup using micro- and macro-algae. It focuses on the management of environmental pollution using microalgae for creating a sustainable environment and for carbon sequestration.

With chapters from experts in the fields of phycology, biotechnology, microbiology, environmental science and plant science, this volume takes an interdisciplinary approach to address the topics of biofuel production, waste treatment, algal remediation, carbon sequestration, and climate stabilization using algae and their biomass, encouraging the development of new tools and techniques for the mitigation of climate change and for pollution remediation.

Researchers, professionals, and academicians in the fields of phycology, microbiology, environmental science, biotechnology, plant science and life science will find much of interest in this volume. This book will enable researchers in the field to understand the modern and advanced approaches in the applications of algae for mitigation of climate change and pollution remediation.

The challenges of climate change mitigation and cleaning up hazardous pollutants is a hot topic, especially in relation to biotechnology and algal bioremediation. This new volume focuses on different approaches for the mitigation of climate change and environmental cleanup using micro- and macro-algae. This book especially deals with the management of environmental pollution using microalgae for sustainable environment and carbon sequestration covering the topics of biofuel production, waste treatment, algal remediation, carbon sequestration, and climate stabilization using algae and their biomass.

With chapters from experts in the field, the book covers algae-mediated environmental sustainability solutions for climate change, the role of microalgae in climate stabilization, microalgae cultivation in algal ponds for wastewater treatment, and more. Also explored are applications of omics tools (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics) based on phytoplankton communities to assess the environmental quality of marine systems along with potential applications of microalgae as models for ecotoxicity testing

Intended for researchers, professionals, and academicians in the fields of phycology, microbiology, environmental science, biotechnology, plant science, and life science, this volume, Environmental Phycology: Climate Change Mitigation and Hazardous Pollutant Cleanup Using Algal Resources, provides valuable information for understanding modern and advanced approaches in the applications of algae for mitigation of climate change and pollution remediation.
