Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Agroindustrial wastewater is considered one of the most promising effluents for microalgal production, not only for its high content of N, P, and micronutrients already available for algal growth but also for its inherent convenience for the reduction of water consumption and its recirculation for internal processes. Algal biomass is currently the most innovative source of renewable metabolites ranging from low to high-end products, including biofertilizers, biopesticides, feed, and food that can be sustainably exploited by the agroindustrial sector into existing and new processes However, several challenges from upstream (strains of algae to be used, production systems) to downstream (harvesting, drying, and extraction of produced biomass) must be overcome to harness their true potential as a key player in the coupling of photosynthetic biorefineries. The following chapter summarizes state-of-the-art and the challenges in the usage of microalgal and cyanobacterial strains in the recovery of nutrients and the synthesis of bio-based products from agroindustrial wastewater.
