Exploring Scenedesmus obliquus and nannochloropsis sp. potential as a sustianable raw material for biofuels amd high added value compounds. In. Livro de actas do 1º Congresso Iberoamericano Sobre Biorrefinerias, 1-CIAB, Los Cabos, Baja California, México, Outubro 24-26, 2012, p. 701-707, ISBN 976-607-441-200-0http://hdl.handle.net/10400.9/1674In this work, the authors propose a microalga-based integrated system, where optimization of several energy vectors (biodiesel, bioethanol and bioH2) is highlighted under the concept of biorefinery (Project PTDC/AAC-AMB/100354/2008). This involves the integration of different processes such as oil and sugar extraction from microalgae for biodiesel and bioethanol production respectively, and bioH2 production from the whole and/or biomass leftovers. The extraction of high value added compounds, such as carotenoids, contributes to the economic viability of the overall process.engMicroalgaScenedesmus obliquusNannochloropsis sp.BioethanolBioH2PigmentsExploring Scenedesmus obliquus and nannochloropsis sp. potential as a sustianable raw material for biofuels amd high added value compoundsconference object
