ABSTRACT-
Global Microalgae Market to Reach US$1.3 Billion by the Year 2026
Microalgae, also known as microphytes, are minute algae that cannot be seen with the human eye. Microalgae are phytoplankton that lives in both the sediment and the water column and can be found in both freshwater and marine systems. Microalgae are fast emerging as the next-in-line resources that show promising potential for resolving the most urgent needs of the agricultural and industrial sectors. Microalgae can help answer the need for new and safe antioxidants that can be extracted from natural sources (plant materials) and prevent oxidative food deterioration and also lower oxidative harm to living cells. Since microalgae can generate biomass quite rapidly, they can be used for producing high-value products such as human health and nutrition products, animal feed, aquaculture, pharmaceuticals, transport fuels and industrial chemicals. Further, there is also no risk of microalgae-based products containing pesticides, herbicides or other toxic substances, due to the possibility of controlling the qualities of microalgal cells with the use of clean nutrient media when growing microalgae.
Microalgae offers promising potential for biofuel-based mobility, decreasing reliance on fast exhausting natural resources for fuel generation. As already demonstrated by researchers, biofuel can be produced by using lipids extracted from freshly grown microalgae by removing maximum water content. The most recent technological advancements in areas including algal cultivation and harvesting, synthetic biology, phenotyping (high-throughput phenomics), and IoT-enabled automation can help augment the industrial potential and enhance the productivity of microalgae. Tools are rapidly been developed and upgraded to genetically engineer microalgae, helped by greater access to sequenced genomes over multiple algal lineages. For instance, microalgal genome sequencing has helped in genetic tool development in the cyanobacteria Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, Nannochloropsis gaditana, stramenopiles Phaeodactylum tricornutum, and green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii among others.
Amid the COVID-19 crisis, the global market for Microalgae estimated at US$1 Billion in the year 2022, is projected to reach a revised size of US$1.3 Billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 5.3% over the analysis period. Spirulina, one of the segments analyzed in the report, is projected to grow at a 6.2% CAGR to reach US$577.8 Million by the end of the analysis period.

This segment currently accounts for a 29.4% share of the global Microalgae market. The use of algae, ranging from chlorella to spirulina, in food and nutrition related applications is growing. Several companies offer spirulina tablets as super foods. These serve as useful ingredients in various energy enhancement and wellness products.
