Comparison of production rates cannot be directly compared between experiments due to lack of standardization in the terminology.
“Another major problem with this field of research is that comparison of production rates cannot be directly compared between experiments due to lack of standardization in the terminology [69].”
60% of untreated biomass will remain undigested.
“Indeed, 60% of untreated biomass will remain undigested.”
Preliminary results compiled in a review showed Spirulina biomass can be digested to make 481 mL g−1 VS, Chlorella vulgaris 403 mL g−1 VS, Euglena gracilis 485 mL g−1 VS, and Dunaliella 440 mL g−1 VS.
“Of the possible organisms to be used for the Stage 2 PBR, preliminary results compiled in a review showed that Spirulina biomass can be digested to make 481 mL g−1 VS, Chlorella vulgaris at 403 mL g−1 VS, Euglena gracilis at 485 mL g−1 VS, and Dunaliella at 440 mL g−1 VS [69].”
Breaking down cyanobacterial cell walls with thermal pretreatments at 100 °C for 8 h showed a 33% increase in biogas productivity over untreated biomass.
“Breaking down cyanobacterial cell walls with thermal pretreatments at 100 °C for 8 h had shown a 33% increase in biogas productivity over the untreated biomass [69].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
