The vast biodiversity of microalgae offers an as yet unexploited natural source of high-value bioactive molecules of potential biotechnological use. Some microalgae can be cultivated similarly to bacteria or yeasts, in multipurpose stirred-tank bioreactors either heterotrophically or mixotrophically. However, with the exception of a few processes for the production of polyunsaturated fatty acids, industrial scale cultivation of microalgae under heterotrophic conditions (i.e., in the dark, with an organic substance as an energy and carbon source) in conventional bioreactors is almost non-existent. The biotechnological focus with microalgae is therefore on the isolation, screening, and improvement of appropriate species, as well as on advancing production technologies.
