SUMMARY:

Given the current scenario of intense environmental degradation by conventional production mechanisms, the development of environmentally sustainable alternative routes is essential. In this context, the biotechnological potential of microalgae is highlighted, since the production of this microorganism has economic and environmental advantages in addition to the natural production of compounds beneficial to human health. Based on these facts, this dissertation proposes the production of microalgal biomass of Dunaliella salina and Anikistrodesmus sp. aiming at the extraction of bioactive compounds such as carotenoids, evaluating cultivation conditions and extraction techniques supported by a minimal environmental degradation approach.
