Algal biotechnology is gaining importance because it has exciting prospects for dealing with issues such as energy security, the environment and economic progress worldwide. This work reviews the latest achievements in algal biotechnology, mainly exploring biofuels, methods for removing carbon and the production of bioproducts. We examine where we stand with research, what new technologies exist and what we can anticipate in each field. The paper mentions the main issues and successes related to growing algal biotechnological projects and connecting them to established industry and environmental services. Finally, we offer examples of balance-related issues and suggest an approach for future work in this field
