Advantages and challenges of microalgae as a source of oil for biodiesel

Author: Griffiths, M J ; Dicks, R G ; Richardson, C ; Harrison, S T L Date: 2011 Microalgal oil is currently being considered as a promising alternative feedstock for biodiesel. The present demand for oil for biofuel production greatly exceeds the supply, hence alternative sources of biomass are required. Microalgae ... Read more c b
Anaerobic digestion of Spirulina sp. and Scenedesmus sp.: a comparison and investigation of the impact of mechanical pre-treatment

Author: Inglesby, A E ; Griffiths, M J ; Harrison, S T L ; Van Hille, R P Date: May 2015 AAnaerobic digestion (AD) is a unit process that integrates beneficially and sustainably into many bioprocesses. This study assesses and compares the production of methane from the biomass of the microalga Scenedesmus sp. and the cyanobacterium ... Read more

Selection of direct transesterification as the preferred method for assay of fatty acid content of microalgae

Author: Griffiths, M J ; van Hille, R P ; Harrison, S T L Date: 2010 Assays for total lipid content in microalgae are usually based on the Folch or the Bligh and Dyer methods of solvent extraction followed by quantification either gravimetrically or by chromatography. Direct transesteri- fication (DT) is a ... Read more
