The production of biodiesel can be accomplished using a variety of feedstock sources. Plant and microalgae based … forests can cater towards partial fulfillment of feedstock requirements for biodiesel industry. Synthesis of biodiesel from … microalgal oil has gathered immense interest and has potential to cater to the increasing feedstocks demands of the biodiesel …

lipid) is still a great challenge for a commercial biodiesel production. This is due to the difference between optimal … renewable energy sources. Liquid microalgal biofuels such as biodiesel represent a sustainable alternative to fossil energy … culture conditions required for biomass and lipid accumulation. The current study proposes a two-phase method allowing both …

study uses microscopy and chromatography to analyze the progression of lipid profile and cell structure of algal cells … shown that TAG content decreased, while DAG and FFA content increased during processing. The changes in the lipid content … nature of lipid composition in an algal culture used for biofuel production and emphasize the need to monitor changes in …
