Our research group participated in this great chapter "A plausible scenario for the third generation of biofuels from microalgae" included in the book Green Approach to Alternative Fuel for a Sustainable Future (Elsevier). Many thanks to the Biorefinery Group for the invitation, specially to Rohit Saxena, Rossy Rodríguez-Jasso and Héctor Ruiz. It is always a pleasure to work with our colleagues from Autonomous University of Coahuila and Cristina González from IMDEA.
