  • Algal Biofuels: Challenges and Opportunities 

    Leite, Gustavo Balduino; Abdelaziz, Ahmed E. M.; Hallenbeck, Patrick C. (Elsevier, 2013)
    Biodiesel production using microalgae is attractive in a number of respects. Here a number of pros and cons to using microalgae for biofuels production are reviewed. Algal cultivation can be carried out using non-arable land and non-potable water with ...

  • Exploring the Diversity of Physiology for Applications in Wastewater Treatment and Biofuels Production 

    Leite, Gustavo Balduino; Hallenbeck, Patrick C.; Abdelaziz, Ahmed E. M. (Algal Research, 2014-10)
    A recently established strain collection of freshwater microalgae native to Quebec was examined for physiological diversity. The 100 strains appeared very heterogeneous in terms of growth when they were cultured at 10±2 °C or 22±2 °C on the secondary ...

  • Isolation and identification of native microalgae for biodiesel production 

    Abdelaziz, Ahmed E. M. (2014-05-20)
    La demande croissante en carburants, ainsi que les changements climatiques dus au réchauffement planétaire poussent le monde entier à chercher des sources d’énergie capables de produire des combustibles alternatifs aux combustibles fossiles. Durant les ...

  • Utilization of biodiesel-derived glycerol or xylose for increased growth and lipid production by indigenous microalgae 

    Leite, Gustavo Balduino; Paranjape, Kiran; Abdelaziz, Ahmed E. M.; Hallenbeck, Patrick C. (Bioresource Technology, 2014)
    The use of industrial wastes rich in mineral nutrients and carbon sources to increase the final microalgal biomass and lipid yield at a low cost is an important strategy to make algal biofuel technology viable. Using strains from the microalgal collection ...
