Handbook of Algal Biofuels offers an all-in-one resource for researchers, graduate students, and industry professionals working in the areas of biofuels and phycology and will be of interest to engineers working in renewable energy, bioenergy, alternative fuels, biotechnology, and chemical engineering. Furthermore, this book includes structured foundational content on algae and algal biofuels for undergraduate and graduate students working in biology and life sciences.
Mostafa El-Sheekh is Professor of Phycology at Tanta University, Egypt. He has nearly 35 years of experience in the research and teaching in the field of algae, microbiology and its applications. Dr. El-Sheekh served as the Dean and Vice Dean Faculty of Science, Tanta University, Egypt and Cultural counselor in Egyptian Embassy in Yemen and Uzbekistan. He holds a Ph.D. in Phycology from Tanta University and Göttingen University, Germany as Chanel System fellowship. He is the recipient of fellowships in Hungary, India, Sweden, Czech Republic, and Japan. He is the author of more than 160 papers and, 7 book chapters, and 2 books. He also serves as editorial member and reviewer for more than 60 peer reviewed journals. He has published many papers on the production of biodiesel, ethanol and hydrogen from algae. He has also 2 book chapters on biodiesel production from microalgae and one book on renewable energy. Abd El-Fatah Abomohra is a Professor of Environmental Engineering at Chengdu University, China. He obtained his PhD in 2012 through a cooperation program between Tanta University in Egypt and Hamburg University in Germany funded by DAAD. He has 20 years of teaching and research experience, as he worked as a teaching assistant, assistant lecturer, lecturer, and associate professor at Tanta University, Egypt since 2001. During his career, he has participated in a number of national projects in Egypt, Germany and China for wastewater treatment/CO2 sequestration, water desalination, and biofuel production from different biomass feedstocks. His current research interests include environmental biotechnology, biodiesel production, anaerobic digestion, bioremediation, fermentation, and thermochemical conversion. His research group is primarily working on bioenergy production from different non-edible feedstocks, including algae.
