  This three volume series presents a definitive scientific and engineering roadmap for the dawn of "seagriculture," positioning the green macroalga Ulva (sea lettuce) as a strategic global resource for a sustainable bioeconomy.This comprehensive series provides a unique "thallus-to-product" perspective, bridging the gap between fundamental laboratory discovery and scalable industrial reality. Across the three volumes, the topics explore the entire value chain: from advanced offshore cultivation strategies and biophysical modeling of global biomass potential to the engineering of high-efficiency biorefineries. A central focus is placed on Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) processing — a breakthrough, non-thermal technology pioneered by the authors to overcome critical energy bottlenecks in seaweed dewatering and selective protein extraction.Beyond industrial processing, the series delves into transformative multi-scale applications, including the development of acellular scaffolds for tissue engineering and innovative biostimulants for sustainable agriculture. By integrating biophysical modeling with empirical field research and process engineering, this series serves as a foundational resource for the next generation of marine industry. It is essential reading for scientists, bioengineers, entrepreneurs, and policymakers dedicated to building a resilient, productive, and restorative marine bioeconomy. This series is not just a scientific record; it is a blueprint for the future of marine-based food, energy, and materials.Volume 1: Offshore Ulva sp. biomass Cultivation for a Marine Bioeconomy: From Global Modeling to Local IntensificationThis volume is dedicated to a multi-scale exploration of one of the most promising candidates for this new marine bioeconomy: the green macroalga Ulva, commonly known as sea lettuce. Ulva is a strategic resource. The seven chapters in this volume provide a "thallus-to-farm" and "global-to-local" perspective on the future of Ulva cultivation. This volume bridges the gap between biophysical modeling, empirical field research, and process engineering. Volume 2: Ulva Polysaccharides: From Agricultural Biostimulants to Tissue Engineering ScaffoldsIn this volume, the foundation for a sustainable marine bioeconomy centered on Ulva is laid. The scale of this opportunity, from global biophysical models mapping its theoretical potential to the intricate, localized challenges of cultivation in nutrient-poor offshore environments is traversed. How to grow Ulva reliably and at a large scale, addressing the critical hurdles of nutrient supply, farm engineering, and integrated aquaculture is established. The five chapters in this volume demonstrate the profound versatility of Ulva. This volume establishes that it is not merely a single crop, but a sophisticated feedstock for multiple, high-value industries. By moving beyond biomass and harnessing the specific functionalities of ulvan and cellulose, this volume charts a clear pathway for the Ulva biorefinery, proving that what we grow in the sea can help us heal our bodies and feed the world more sustainably.Volume 3: Engineering the Ulva Value Chain: Non-Thermal Processing with Pulsed Electric FieldsIn this volume, the central, practical bottleneck that lies between the farm and the product — processing — is addressed. This volume is dedicated to the comprehensive development and validation of a true "green" processing technology: Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) processing. The seven chapters in this volume provide a complete blueprint for the implementation of PEF technology in the Ulva bioeconomy. This volume is a guide for the engineers, scientists, and entrepreneurs who will build the next generation of biorefineries, proving that with the right process, the ocean's green biomass can be sustainably and efficiently transformed into the food, feed, and materials of the future.
