Microwave treatment of wet algal paste for enhanced solvent extraction of lipids for biodiesel production
Ali, Mehmood; Watson, Ian A. - In: Renewable Energy 76 (2015) C, pp. 470-477
The role of microwave treatment as a precursor to lipid extraction from Nannochloropsis oculata using solvent extraction was investigated. Two microwave power settings were used, corresponding to wall plug powers of 635 and 1021 W. To limit the maximum temperature rise of the wet algal...
