Current commercial makers of algae-based fuel first dry the algae and then extract the natural oil. But at over $20 per gallon, this fuel is a long way from the gas pump. “Companies know that that approach is not economical, so they are looking at approaches for using wet algae, as are we,” Savage said.

Soxhlet systems have extensively used for the oil extraction from microalgae with hexane because of its low cost, easy recovery and selectivity to neutral lipids (Cheng et al., 2011; Flisar et al., 2014; Aravind et al., 2021; Wang et al., 2021; Zhou et al., 2022). One of the modifications that has provided benefits for the lipid extraction is ...

Also, by varying the percentage of dryness in the algae showed that the completely dried algae produced higher quantity of oil. Thus, the oil extraction with completely dried algae and finer size of algae resulted in higher percentage of oil extraction. For 100% dry algae powder and particle size of 0.322 μm resulted in maximum oil yield of 83%.
- How is microalgae oil extracted?
- In the microalgae industry, the extraction of microalgae oil is an important process because it involves high energy consumption and high cost. At present, the main microalgae oil extraction methods are mechanical pressing [ 25 ], supercritical fluid extraction [ 27 ], enzyme extraction [ 43 ], and organic solvent extraction [ 7 ].
- How long does it take to extract co-solvent from microalgae?
- The extraction time for subcritical co-solvent extraction is 25 minutes. Extraction temperatures and biomass load are adjusted for maximum lipid extraction at 220 °C and 25%, respectively. Extraction is carried out with wet microalgae pastes using a high-pressure extractor covered with an agitator and a 100-ml stainless steel extraction cell.
- What are the different types of algae oil extraction techniques?
- New algae oil extraction techniques are being developed, such as enzyme-assisted extraction [ 34 ], microwave-assisted extraction [ 35 ], ultrasound-assisted extraction [ 36 ], pressurized liquid extraction [ 37 ], and supercritical fluid extraction [ 38, 39 ].
- Can biodiesel be extracted from microalgae?
- Although biodiesel can be extracted from microalgae using current dry extraction methods, the energy consumption in drying microalgae exceeds the energy required for the extraction itself. There is still a need for technology to optimize the cost-effective and quick extraction of biodiesel from microalgae.
