Synopsis

This is the first book to present the idea of using Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing in the microalgae industry for environmental biotechnology. It provides the latest developments on microalgae for use in environmental biotechnology, explains process analysis from an engineering point of view, and discusses the transition to smart manufacturing and how state of the art technologies can be incorporated. It covers applications, technologies, challenges, and future perspectives.

• Showcases how Industry 4.0 can be applied in algae industry

• Covers new ideas generated from Industry 4.0 for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)

• Demonstrates new technologies invented to cater to Industry 4.0 in microalgae

• Features worked examples related to biological systems

Aimed at chemical engineers, bioengineers, and environmental engineers, this is an essential resource for researchers, academics, and industry professionals in the microalgae biotechnology field.
