Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Microalgae are unicellular autotrophic and heterotrophic microorganisms that can exceed the areal productivity of land plants by order of magnitude. Microalgae are producers of food, medicines, high-value bioactive substances and biofuels. They are highly adaptable, allowing them to thrive in freshwater and saltwater, and can be cultivated on non-arable land. Different cultivation methods have varying effects on the yield of bioactive substances produced by microalgae. As such, selecting the appropriate cultivation conditions is imperative for efficient compound production. This chapter summarizes the current state of microalgae cultivation, techniques for overproduction of high-value nutraceuticals, and future prospects, with the aim of providing the reader with fresh ideas for the cultivation of microalgae for human health.
