Anaerobic digestion of microalgal biomass: Challenges, opportunities and research needs
Abstract
Integration of anaerobic digestion (AD) with microalgae processes has become a key topic to support economic and environmental development of this resource. Compared with other substrates, microalgae can be produced close to the plant without the need for arable lands and be fully integrated within a biorefinery. As a limiting step, anaerobic hydrolysis appears to be one of the most challenging steps to reach a positive economic balance and to completely exploit the potential of microalgae for biogas and fertilizers production. This review covers recent investigations dealing with microalgae AD and highlights research opportunities and needs to support the development of this resource. Novel approaches to increase hydrolysis rate, the importance of the reactor design and the noteworthiness of the microbial anaerobic community are addressed. Finally, the integration of AD with microalgae processes and the potential of the carboxylate platform for chemicals and biofuels production are reviewed.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In the citing paper
“As will be mentioned in the biofuels section, a two-reactor system has already been proven with Spirulina biomass being fed to a methanogenic reactor.”
In the citing paper
“Protein-rich diets lead to increased ammonia levels in the culture which inhibit methanogenesis [68].”
In the citing paper
“Spirulina was fed to a reactor populated by Methanocalculus sp. which then also used carbon dioxide and formate to produce a methane content of 92–96% in its biogas [68].”
In the citing paper
“If ammonium inhibition cannot be avoided, then bioaugmentation with Methanoculleus bourgensis has also been shown to increase methane production by 31.3%, but this concept has not been tested in reactors fed with cyanobacterial biomass [68].”
In the citing paper
“However, experiments have been done that verify the use of photosynthetic cyanobacteria as food for a methanogenic reactor.”
In the citing paper
“The tradeoff experienced was that this high relative production of methane was met with low overall biogas production.”

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.
