Assessing the stability and techno-economic implications for wet storage of harvested microalgae to manage seasonal variability

Abstract Background Seasonal variation in microalgae production is a significant challenge to developing cost-competitive algae biofuels. Summer production can be three to five times greater than winter production, which could result in winter biomass shortages and summer surpluses at algae biorefin...
