  • the technology disclosed herein relates to novel methods and compositions for the production processes of algae cell components from algae belonging to the genus Scenedesmus.
  • the extractability of the algae cellular components is improved and the process is optimized and accelerated by using the enzyme compositions according to the present invention.
  • microalgae are microscopic photosynthetic organisms, many of which are unicellular.
  • macroalgae which are commonly known as seaweeds, are composed of multiple cells which organize to structures resembling roots, stems, and leaves of higher plants.
  • Microalgae are thought to be one of the earliest life forms on earth and they are the fastest growing plants in the world. Since they can inhabit diverse ecological habitats ranging from freshwater, brackish water, or seawater, they are equipped to thrive in various extreme temperatures and pH conditions. These peculiarities make microalgae the most abundant organisms on earth.
  • Macroalgal in general such as, Laminaria, Saccorhiza, Alaria are belonging to brown algal group and grows up to meters and their main reserved food material is laminarin and mannitol.
  • the red algae such as Gelidium amansii, which is composed of cellulose, glucan and galactan, also can serve as a potential feedstock for bioconversion to ethanol.
  • algae yield unique biochemical substances which may be pharmacologically active, for example as viral inhibitors or cell division inhibitors, and substances which can serve as gelling and thickening agents and are used e.g. in the food industry.

  • Haematococcus Cultivation is the main way to generate biomass from microalgae. This has been done at industrial scale for many years.
  • the most common production systems employed for algal cultivation are outdoor open ponds and enclosed photobioreactors (PBR). Production systems vary in terms of growth parameters control, contamination, water evaporation, productivity, downstream processing characteristics, capital and operational costs, etc.
  • Harvesting produces a slurry material with 2 - 7 % algal concentration.
  • the next step is dewatering in order to get 15 to 25% concentration. This is usually achieved by pressing or centrifugation. These steps are normally integrated in the harvesting operation. Drying may be necessary for some applications. A very important issue in biomass treatment is the preservation of chemical quality.
  • microalgae harvesting is a two stage process, involving: (1) Bulk harvesting aimed at separation of biomass from the bulk suspension. The concentration factors for this operation are generally 100-800 times to reach 2-7% total solid matter. This will depend on the initial biomass concentration and technologies employed, including flocculation, flotation or gravity sedimentation. (2) Thickening— the aim is to concentrate the slurry through techniques such as centrifugation, filtration and ultrasonic aggregation, hence, are generally a more energy intensive step than bulk harvesting.
  • the harvested biomass slurry (typical 5-15% dry solid content) is perishable and must be processed rapidly after harvest; dehydration or drying is commonly used to extend the viability depending on the final product required.
  • Methods that have been used include sun drying, low-pressure shelf drying, spray drying, drum drying, fluidized bed drying and freeze drying.
  • Spray drying is commonly used for extraction of high value products, but it is relatively expensive and can cause significant deterioration of some algal pigments. Freeze drying is equally expensive, especially for large scale operations, but it eases extraction of oils. Intracellular elements such as oils are difficult to extract from wet biomass with solvents without cell disruption, but are extracted more easily from freeze dried biomass. The cost of drying is an important consideration in the processing of microalgal biomass powder for the food and feed industry and especially for the emerging biofuels industry.
  • Cell disruption is often required for recovering intracellular products from microalgae and performed to release intracellular products into the culture broth making them available for further separation processes.
  • Cell disruption methods that have been used successfully include bead milling, high- pressure homogenisers, autoclaving, ultrasonication super critical C02 extraction and addition of hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide, or alkaline lysis.
  • Solvents like e.g. hexane, are widely used to extract metabolites such astastaxanthin, beta-carotene and fatty acids from algal biomass.
  • Properties of the cell membrane play an important part in solvent extraction process. For example, the presence of a cell wall may prevent direct contact between the solvent and the cell membrane and impede the extraction.
  • aqueous extraction technologies As algal cells vary greatly in compositions between the species.
  • a variety of aquatic microalgae including the green alga Scenedesmus, have been studied for their possible efficacy as bioresources for applications as fish feed, human food, supplemental human nutrients and pharmaceutical products (Belay et al., 1993), and also for the bioremediation of polluted water (Chong et al., 2000).
