Biofuels: An Emerging Industry,e energy sector toward renewable, carbon neutral resources. This chapter introduces the biofuel industry, which relies on the energy derived from living organisms or from their metabolic products, in the contest of global energy supply.

Biodiesel from Microalgae,d to biodiesel. Accumulation of neutral lipids has mainly evolved as a response strategy to stress conditions, which on the other hand are detrimental for growth and biomass production. Genetic improvement would be required as part of the effort for algae domestication in order to meet industrial lipid production requirements.

Photosynthesis: A Dynamic Process,ds on photosynthetic efficiency, and comprehension of the photosynthetic process is therefore essential, especially if production of cheap energy carriers is considered, and requires to maximize productivity for a sustainable system.

Downstream Biochemical Reactions: Carbon Assimilation,on transfer and biochemical reactions. The main rate-limiting step at increasing light intensity is carbon dioxide assimilation through the Calvin–Benson cycle. Proper supply of carbon dioxide during growth of algae in photobioreactor, coupled to genetic improvement of carbon dioxide fixation, could improve biomass productivity.

Light-Utilization Inefficiency of Wild-Type Algal Mass Cultures,ting antenna systems found in wild-type strains are responsible for inefficient light-utilization by the culture as a whole. Growth conditions in the natural habitat are opposite compared to mass cultivation, and configurations positively selected in the wild may become detrimental in photobioreactors.
