The invention relates to methods for converting algal biomass into a gas or into biocrude comprising (a) gasification or hydrothermal liquefaction of an algal biomass in at least one first reactor, (b) separation of the gas or biocrude produced thereby from the aqueous effluents and the CO.sub.2 produced, at the outlet of the first reactor, (c) recovery of the aqueous effluents, and (d) oxidation of the aqueous effluents in at least one second reactor. Continuous processes for culture of algal biomass and conversion of the algal biomass cultivated into a gas or into a biocrude are also disclosed.

A genetically modified organism comprising: at least one nucleic acid sequence and/or at least one recombinant nucleic acid isolated from Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius and encoding a polypeptide involved in at least partially degrading, cleaving, transporting, metabolizing, or removing polysaccharides, cellulose, lignocellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, starch, sugars, sugar oligomers, carbohydrates, complex carbohydrates, chitin, heteroxylans, glycosides, xylan-, glucan-, galactan-, or mannan-decorating groups; and at least one nucleic acid sequence and/or at least one recombinant nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide involved in fermenting sugar molecules to a product. Additionally, enzymatic and/or proteinaceous extracts may be isolated from one or more genetically modified organisms. The extracts are utilized to convert biomass into a product. Further provided are methods of converting biomass into products comprising: placing the genetically modified organism and/or enzymatic extracts thereof in fluid contact with polysaccharides, cellulose, lignocellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, starch, sugars, sugar oligomers, carbohydrates, complex carbohydrates, chitin, heteroxylans, glycosides, and/or xylan-, glucan-, galactan-, or mannan-decorating groups.
