Microalgae-based biodiesel production and its challenges and future opportunities: A review

Green Technologies and Sustainability, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 2(1), P. 100060 - 100060

Published: Nov. 1, 2023

The rapid depletion of fossil fuel reserves and rising greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions have necessitated research into low-cost renewable energy sources, with a focus on algal-derived biofuels. Biodiesel, sustainable alternative fuel, can be derived from variety biological sources Microalgae-based biodiesel production offers an innovative method generating energy. By utilizing advanced cultivation techniques, such as photobioreactors open pond systems, microalgae grown efficiently in large quantities. Furthermore, various methods, lipid extraction transesterification, are employed to convert the lipid-rich biomass biodiesel. However, make microalgae-based more cost-effective sustainable, several challenges need addressed, higher costs, reduced productivity rates, potential environmental impacts. Future opportunities lie creating methods for cultivating harvesting microalgae, improving yields, effective conversion methods. Overall, shows promise source. further development must take place realize its full reap rewards.

Optimizing biodiesel production from waste with computational chemistry, machine learning and policy insights: a review

Environmental Chemistry Letters, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 22(3), P. 1005 - 1071

Published: Feb. 13, 2024

Abstract The excessive reliance on fossil fuels has resulted in an energy crisis, environmental pollution, and health problems, calling for alternative such as biodiesel. Here, we review computational chemistry machine learning optimizing biodiesel production from waste. This article presents techniques, characteristics, transesterification, waste materials, policies encouraging Computational techniques are applied to catalyst design deactivation, reaction reactor optimization, stability assessment, feedstock analysis, process scale-up, mechanims, molecular dynamics simulation. Waste comprise cooking oil, animal fat, vegetable algae, fish waste, municipal solid sewage sludge. oil represents about 10% of global production, restaurants alone produce over 1,000,000 m 3 annual. Microalgae produces 250 times more per acre than soybeans 7–31 palm oil. Transesterification food lipids can with a 100% yield. Sewage sludge significant biomass that contribute renewable production.

Algae and bacteria consortia for wastewater decontamination and transformation into biodiesel, bioethanol, biohydrogen, biofertilizers and animal feed: a review

Environmental Chemistry Letters, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 21(3), P. 1585 - 1609

Published: Jan. 20, 2023

Abstract Traditional wastewater treatment has been aimed solely at sanitation by removing contaminants, yet actual issues of climate change and depletion natural resources are calling for methods that both remove contaminants convert waste into chemicals fuels. In particular, biological treatments with synergic coupling microalgae bacteria appear promising to organic, inorganic, pathogen generate biofuels. Here, we review the use algae in valorization focus on cell-to-cell adhesion, properties, techniques harvesting production biodiesel, bioethanol, biohydrogen, exopolysaccarides, biofertilizers, animal feeds.
