Summary
Microalgae are one of the impressive life forms. Since microalgae are a photosynthetic organism, they are produced in conditions which include light, water, CO 2 , nutrients and with proper temperature and pH. Hence, the cultivation circumstances of microalgae are of great importance for maximum production. Lately, microalgae are in the spotlight for biofuel generations, microalgal compounds and industrial uses. Furthermore, biofuels created from microalgae are recognized as the most important renewable sources of industrial manufacturing. This chapter explicates general information about algae, and systems used to cultivate microalgae for these applications and future research.
