Abstract: | The potential of microalgae biomass as a feedstock for bioethanol fermentation has been widely considered in recent years. Yet, to date, only a modest level of research has been reported in this area. In all likelihood, the generation of a sustainable, sufficient level of biomass for biofuel production will need to be undertaken in saline water, and potentially under hypersaline conditions, to circumvent reliance on fresh water. However, the processing challenges associated with the fermentation of hypersaline biomass have yet to be adequately addressed. This review examines developments thus far for producing bioethanol from microalgae, indicating alternative means by which hypersaline microalgal biomass may be utilised, and provides a framework in which the industrial potential for sourcing such biomass should be considered. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd. |

Description: | Available online 29 September 2012. Corrected by: Corrigendum to “Microalgal biomass for bioethanol fermentation: Implications for hypersaline systems with an industrial focus” [Biomass Bioenergy 46 (2012) 79–88], in Biomass and Bioenergy, 2013; 58:406-407, The authors regret that an error occurs in Table 4 and in the review narrative where biomass production has been discussed. The error does not affect the relative comparisons made nor change overall conclusions of the review, yet, may mislead readers on this particular underestimated productivity parameter for the biomass sources discussed. A corrected Table 4 has been included in this corrigendum. The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. Acknowledgement also included. |
