Lubricants are indispensable in the modern economy for controlling friction and wear across many industries. Traditional lubricants derived from petroleum crude can cause significant ecological impact if released into environment. Microalgae have emerged as a potential alternative to producing renewable environmentally friendly biolubricants. This review systematically assesses recent developments microalgal-based biolubricant production, including tribological performance, microalgae selection, cultivation, harvesting, lipid polysaccharide extraction conversion biolubricants, market development. Compared petroleum-based terms of properties, biolubricants compatible with most emerging applications, such electric vehicles wind turbines. Nevertheless, they less thermally chemically stable, thus, may not be suitable some traditional applications internal combustion engines. Literature data corroborated this study reveals an urgent need further research scale up production lower cost biomass harvesting. While technologies converting microalgae-derived lipids appear well established, additional work is necessary also utilize polysaccharides another key ingredient especially low-temperature applications. Extraction methods established but needed reduce impact, green solvents solvent consumption. Additionally, future should delve use nanoparticles effective additives obtain microalgae-based superior properties. Finally, it essential standardize labeling system establish global market.

A newly designed living membrane filtering module (LMFM) has been applied to promote synergistic cultivation phases and harvesting of Chlorella vulgaris microalgae. The LMFM is based on a biomembrane intercalated between two woven fabrics made polyester Dacron that allows an unprecedented simple microalgae recovery from the aqueous media. systematic comparison systems operated in parallel for biological carbon capture utilization (bCCU) was executed. performances photobioreactor with submerged (membrane photobioreactor, MPBR) were compared those conventional (PBR). PBR MPBR obtained 92 94% dioxide removal yields, respectively. presence did not significantly affect performance terms removal, which resulted elimination capacity per stage up 24.3 ± 4.4 g m–3 h–1 MPBR. indeed afforded remarkable enhancement microalgal biomass production composition lipids, lipid concentration 36% dry weight. produced almost 80% higher than PBR, allowed increase 77% total lipids. Lipid accumulation mainly attributed increased photon availability Integrating enhanced accumulation, increasing potentiality algal-based biofixation as effective biorefinery technology.

The tubular flocculation reactor is a new and efficient device for treating algae-containing wastewater. introduction of bubbles during the reaction process can effectively shorten time required floc separation. However, impact on formation removal in not well understood. To further clarify effect reactor’s operation, this study employed uniform experimental design, varying flow rate, chemical dosage, bubble distance, injection rate to examine influence under different operating conditions. results indicated that as distance increased from 0 m 7.6 m, efficiency 60% 70%, size 160 μm 165 μm, fractal dimension decreased 2.1 1.9. When volume 5% 30%, 50% 80%. Under constant conditions, rising speed flocs 0.4 mm·s−1 1.2 mm·s−1, while 30% 90%. A logarithmic correlation was observed between efficiency. linear relationship found size, with increasing 200 800 2.3 mm·s−1. An exponential speed, decreasing 1.93 2.02.
