The paper provide s requested management-changing decisions through implementation of conclusions of Global Sus tainable Development theory based on including of microalgae in Bio and Industrial Cycles in the area of waste-related management challenges within creating market opportunities for industry through expansion of resource efficiency use across global supply chains and new design and building sustainable development with contemporary manufacturing of value added products. A truly coherent waste management and other production policy (biofuel, biopharmaceuticals, food, feed and perfumery additives) and mitigation of Climate Change are ways to bring these traces closer to cost ef fective manufacturing, improving of resource efficiency use, well being economy and human health. Offered techno logical change dramatically increase biomass feedstock resources, reduce waste origin of greenhouse emission (since 13 % - 17%), organics sent to landfill, pyrolyses, etc. and create a model that all elements along the waste value chain create economic, societal and/or environmental value .
