The Open Microalgae Biotechnology is an international journal, that publishes research articles, reviews, letters and guest edited single topic issues in all areas of Microalgal Biotechnology.
The journal encourages submissions related to the following fields:
- Fundamentals (morpho-physiological, structural and metabolic aspects, synthetic biology)
- Microalgae-based processes (culture conditions and production systems, wastewater treatment, CO2 capture and use, harvesting techniques, extraction and purification of biomolecules)
- Microalgae-based products (single-cell protein, single-cell oil, pigments, bioactive proteins, peptides and amino acids, bioactive polysaccharides, sterols, bioplastics, UV-Screening compounds, volatile organic compounds, biofertilizers, biofuels, novel molecules, biogas, biodiesel, bioethanol, biohydrogen, biocrude oil)
- Engineering approaches applied to microalgal processes and products (process integration applied to microalgal systems, process intensification applied to microalgae bioproducts, microalgal biorefineries, techno-economic analysis of microalgae processes and products, life-cycle assessment, exergy analysis, scale-up of microalgae-based processes)
