Comparison of Lipid Extraction from Microalgae and Soybeans with Aqueous Isopropanol
(Springer Verlag Berlín, 2013-04)
The extraction efficiency of microalgae lipids with aqueous isopropanol (IPA) was investigated and compared with the extraction of oil from full-fat soy flour. The effects of the type of microalgae (Scenedesmus sp. and ...
Avaliação da produção de biodiesel de microalga Isochrysis galbana via transesterificação in situ
(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do NorteBRUFRNPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia QuímicaPesquisa e Desenvolvimento de Tecnologias Regionais, 2014-04-04)
Microalgae are microscopic photosynthetic organisms that grow rapidly and in different environmental conditions due to their simple cellular structure. The cultivation of microalgae is a biological system capable of storing ...
Microalgae Versus Land Crops as Feedstock for Biodiesel: Productivity, Quality, and Standard Compliance
(2014)
Despite certain environmental advantages over fossil diesel, land crop-derived biodiesels may not satisfy the increasing worldwide demand for transportation fuels. As an abundant photosynthesizer, algae could be an adequate ...
Emergy analysis of oil production from microalgae
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTDOXFORD, 2012)
The use of microalgae and cyanobacteria for the production of biofuels and other raw materials is considered a very promising sustainable technology due to the high areal productivity, potential for CO2 fixation and use ...
Biodiesel production from Halamphora coffeaeformis microalga oil by supercritical ethanol transesterification
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2019-11)
The marine benthic diatom Halamphora coffeaeformis is a potential feedstock for biodiesel production. Thisspecies shows high growth rates, important triacylglycerol (TAG) contents and grows in seawater makinglarge-scale ...

Feedstocks for Second-Generation Biodiesel: Microalgae’s Biology and Oil Composition
(IntechOpen, 2011)
The solar energy is an inexhaustible source, while other energy reserves, like fossil and nuclear fuels, are limited in quantity and are depleted as years go by. Renewable energy is necessary to replace petroleum-derived ...
Experimental investigation on fast pyrolysis of freshwater algae. Prospects for alternative bio-fuel production
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-04)
Several technologies have been developed with the aim of obtaining fuels from algae. In the present work, the fast pyrolysis of three different types of microalgae (Botryococcus braunii, Spirulina platensis, and Pithophora ...
