Extraction of oil from algae for biodiesel production
Extraction of oil from algae for biodiesel production, from Quetta, Pakistan September 2018 IOP Conference Series Materials Science and Engineering 414(1):012022
This literature review discusses several aspects of biodiesel production from microalgae. This paper elucidates the optimal bioenvironmental conditions for microalgae cultivation, process design of algal biodiesel production, physicochemical properties of lipids extracted from microalgae and the properties of the produced biodiesel fuel, and the transesterification process.
Sustainable Approaches to Algal Biofuels: Opportunities, Key
Although anaerobic digestion of algal biomass is still a possibility, since the first oil shocks in the 1980s, the major focus of algae oil research, and especially biodiesel production, has been on the greater value of liquid transportation fuels derived from microalgae (Ebabhi 2012). Recently, corn and sugarcane have emerged as the most
The synthesis of bio-oil or any biofuel from algal biomass follows the following steps: culturing (algae), harvesting/dewatering (algae), extraction of oil (algae), purification (bio-oil), and processing of oil (biofuels) (Ganesan et al. 2020). Bio-oil is a very promising and renewable energy source that is acknowledged around the world.
Algal biofuel production and mitigation potential in India
Energy and energy services are the backbone of growth and development in India and is increasingly dependent upon the use of fossil based fuels that lead to greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions and related concerns. Algal biofuels are being evolved as carbon (C)-neutral alternative biofuels. Algae are photosynthetic microorganisms that convert sunlight, water and carbon dioxide (CO2) to various
Algae can be converted into various types of fuels, depending on the production technologies and the part of the cells used. The lipid, or oily part of the algae biomass can be extracted and converted into biodiesel through a process similar to that used for any other vegetable oil, or converted in a refinery into "drop-in" replacements for petroleum-based fuels.
Algae Oil to Biodiesel: A Practical Application
The USDA maintained its forecast for 2024-’25 soybean oil use in biofuel production in its latest WASDE report, released July 12. The outlook for soybean production was lowered, but the forecast for soybean oil prices was unchanged. Read More
Microalgal Biodiesel Production: The Sustainability Check. Algae biodiesel industry is starting to take off. Algae projects see an emerging trend in the production of algal-based drop in fuels and various high-value products. In a bid to realize the sustainability index, extensive research efforts are being carried out by researchers
Laboratory Scale Production of bio-oil from Oscillatoria
Many such renewable, less toxic, and inexpensive solutions are available, including biodiesel from macroalgae. Algal cells contain 50% intracellular lipids in them which plays an important role in
Recommendation 1] Government should create Algae for Biodiesel Research Center under Energy Commission of Nigeria to facilitate R and D in Algae plantation, extraction and biodiesel production. 2] Petroleum and Refining Industries should use algal farm to serve as GHGs mitigation option, since algae require huge amount of CO2to grow. 3] Niger
Can algae oil be used for biodiesel production in developing countries?
Unfortunately, the use of algae oil for biodiesel production is underutilized in developing countries. Therefore, this study focuses on finding a better understanding of the evolving prospects and current challenges facing biodiesel production from algae oil in developing countries.
Can algae biodiesel be commercialized?
However, developing and commercializing algae biodiesel presents both challenges and opportunities in its production and commercialization processes. High Production Costs: Algae biodiesel production currently has less economic viability due to its much higher production costs compared to traditional fossil fuels , , .
Can microalgae be used as a feedstock for biodiesel?
A study has shown that microalgae have a lipid yield in the range of 30 to 40% [ 4 ], which further supports its use as a source for the feedstock of biodiesel production. They can be cultivated in large scale as lipid source for biodiesel. Biodiesel from algae oil can be classified as a third-generation biofuel.
Which microalgae are used for biodiesel production?
Triglyceride is the starting material for biodiesel production. Several species of microalgae have been identified for biodiesel production. Some selected species of microalgae for biodiesel production are presented in Table 1.
