Cyanobacteria - Exploring Their Role in Energy, Environment and Industry Exploring Their Role in Energy, Environment and Industry

Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic microorganisms of fundamental importance to Earth's ecosystems and to a wide range of biological and applied studies. Their roles in oxygenic photosynthesis, nutrient cycling, and biomass production have made them a central focus of research in energy-related processes, environmental systems, and industrial biology. Cyanobacteria - Exploring Their Role in Energy, Environment, and Industry provides an overview of key concepts and current research related to cyanobacterial biology and applications. The volume covers fundamental aspects of photosynthesis, including the structural and functional roles of Photosystem II cofactors, as well as advances in genetic modification, cyanobacteria as biological chassis, algae-based biorefineries, wastewater treatment, and the ecological dynamics that influence cyanobacterial populations in natural environments. Rather than emphasizing technological deployment, this book focuses on foundational knowledge and representative studies that illustrate the diversity and relevance of cyanobacteria across scientific disciplines. It is intended as a reference for researchers, graduate students, and professionals seeking a clear and comprehensive introduction to the field. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 536.…
