BS 17399:2020 pdf download – Algae and algae products – Terms and definitions This document defines the terms related to functions, products, and properties of algae and algae products. In order to better pack the methodologies, algae are regarded as a functional group of organisms consisting of microalgae, macroalgae, cyanobacteria and Labyrinthulomycetes. 2 Normative references There are no normative references in this document. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses: • IEC Electropedia: available at http://www.electropedia.org/ • ISO Online browsing platform: available at https://www.iso.org/obp 3.1 algae biorefinery facility that integrates algae biomass conversion processes and equipment to produce a spectrum of bio-based products (food, feed, chemicals, materials) and bioenergy (biofuels, power and/or heat) [SOURCE: International Energy Agency Bioenergy. Task 42 – Biorefining in a Circular Economy.] 3.2 algae oil glyceridic fraction of lipids derived from algae 3.3 algae strain population of unicellular/pluricellular organisms of a single algae species, all descended from the entirety/or a part of an organism or several organisms, being synonymous with a monoclonal culture and a genetic representative of a single algae species NOTE This definition includes sexual and asexual reproduction. 3.4 amino acid organic molecule that consist of a basic amino group (−NH 2 ), an acidic carboxyl group (−COOH), and an organic R group (or side chain) that is unique to each amino acid NOTE In this context the term amino acid is short for α-amino [alpha-amino] carboxylic acid. Each molecul contains a central carbon atom, called the α-carbon, to which both an amino and a carboxyl group are attached. 3.5 artificial light photons from a source other than the sun EXAMPLE fluorescent light and LEDs Note 1 to entry: The energy to produce light could come from a mix of sources that can range from fossil fuels, nuclear plants and renewable and sustainable sources, such as wind, photovoltaics, biomass, etc. Note 2 to entry: Energy consumed and emissions associated with this should be accounted for in the assessment of the sustainability. 3.6 bioenergy energy derived from biomass NOTE Biomass can be processed into solid, liquid or gaseous fuels or stored energy in biomass can be directly converted into other forms of energy (e.g. heat, light).
