Interest in the application of algae for biofuels was rekindled during the oil embargo and oil price surges of the 1970, leading to initiate the Aquatic Species Program in 1978. The Aquatic Species Program spent $25 million over 18 years with the goal of developing liquid transportation fuel from algae that would be price competitive with ...

High Production Costs: Algae biodiesel production currently has less economic viability due to its much higher production costs compared to traditional fossil fuels [230], [231], [232]. • Limited Scalability: Even though algae production can be increased on a small scale, it is hard to meet the needs of the global fuel market right now [233]. •

The Flexibility of Biofuel Production Systems. Central to all light-driven biofuel production is the process of photosynthesis. It is the first step in the conversion of light to chemical energy and ultimately responsible for driving the production of the feedstocks required for a wide range of fuel synthesis (Fig. 1): protons and electrons (for biohydrogen), sugars and starch (for bioethanol ...

Extremely low land use is easily explained by high biomass production yields reached by algae. Indeed, annual oil production can reach 26 t/ha/year for algae while soybean annual production is 0.47 t/ha/year, rapeseed reaches 1.3 t/ha/year, and palm tree yields 4.7 t/ha/year . Due to heat and electricity requirements, the algal biodiesel is out ...

In order to investigate how the biodiesel production responds to a change in oil content of the algae, the extraction efficiency, transesterification efficiency, and nitrogen content of the vinasse were studied and shown in Fig. 7. The result shows that the production of the biodiesel is most sensitive to a change in the oil content of the algae.
- Can algae produce large-scale oil?
- Large-scale algal oil production requires continuous outputs and a trade-off between growth and oil content. Two unrelated marine algae ( Nannochloropsis oceanica [CCAP 849/10] and Chlorella vulgaris [CCAP 211/21A]) that showed high oil production under batch culture were studied under controlled semicontinuous cultivation conditions.
- Are microalgae a candidate for bio-oil production?
- Due to their high lipid content and rapid development rates, microalgae, a varied collection of microscopic photosynthetic organisms, have emerged as a candidate for bio-oil production ( Wang et al., 2022 ). Compared to conventional oil crops like soybeans and corn, microalgae provide a number of benefits.
- Are microalgae suitable for large-scale biofuel production?
- I wanted to review this research to provide a framework to establish the most suitable microalgae species for large-scale biofuel production that can ultimately rival oil and gas giants and reduce our reliance on fossil fuels. Microalgae have a unique ability to convert sunlight and carbon dioxide into a wide range of biochemical compounds.
- What is microalgae bio-oil?
- Because of its low environmental impact and high production, microalgae bio-oil has quickly become a popular renewable fuel option. The process utilizes microalgae which are readily available in nature to produce an alternative to fossil fuel.
