Reviews

This book trully presents some of the most promising existing microalgal biomass growth technologies and summarizes some of the novel methodologies for sustainable and commercial microalgae production. ... each chapter is written in a very clear and concise way, having also a selective but rich bibliography. I am positively sure ... that the editors' sentence 'We trust the reader will enjoy the book as much as we enjoyed writing and editing it.' is TRUE. (Prof. Ioan I. Ardelean, Bulletin of Micro and Nanoelectrotechnologies, Vol. 7 (3-4), 2015)
