    Abstract

    The surging usage of marine microalgae ingredients and proteins in the production of aquaculture, pharmaceutical, and nutraceutical products is set to drive sales in the market. Increasing government initiatives to standardize the cultivation process of microalgae is expected to be a key factor propelling the growth. Rapid technological advancements to develop new strains that enhance energy efficiency and handle high salinity boost the market further. The vital need for the early detection of contaminants is anticipated to create new growth opportunities for novel photobioreactor microalgae producers. Arthrospira and chlorella are the most common species of algae photobioreactors that provide high-quality proteins. These species contain amino acid compositions similar to conventional protein sources, such as soybeans and eggs. The usage of chlorella in hair care products is estimated to surge as it improves the keratin level and strengthens hair roots. The increasing humanization of pets is leading to the high demand for healthy foods from pet owners, thereby propelling the usage of algae photobioreactors in the pet food industry.
