摘要：

The aim of this work was to perform a life-cycle analysis of the production process of a fungicide based on amphidinols. Two scenarios were evaluated: (1) biorefinery process-biofungicide, fatty acids and carotenoids were considered as co-products-, and (2) biofungicide as only product. Inventory data were taken and scaled-up from previous work on pilot-scale reactors, as well as lab-scale downstream equipment. A yearly production of 22,000 L of fungicide, was selected as the production objective. Despite, photosynthetic biomass is a sink of anthropogenic CO2, harvesting and downstream processing have large carbon footprints that exceed the biomass fixed carbon. Producing the biofungicide resulted in 34.61 and 271.33 ton of CO2e (15 years) for the Scenarios 1 and 2, respectively. Different commercial agricultural fungicides were compared with the microalgal fungicide. A lower impact of the microalgal product for most of the indicators, including carbon footprint, was shown.
