Abstract

The high content of lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates in microalgae makes them valuable, sustainable, and environmentally friendly feedstock that can face the exponential demand for nutritious food and cleaner fuels. This article presents relevant information on the ability of microalgal biomass to solve the
current food or fuel production dilemma. It also reports on the need to continue developing research and novel technologies for the optimal use of microalgae.
