Fuels from Algae: A Review

K. Rajakumari, M. Abirla.

Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

Biofuel is an effective fuel which is non-polluting and biodegradable with less emissions of greenhouse gases. There are many sources for the biofuel production. In recent, algae has ensured to be the suitable sources for biofuel production. This approach may solve many problems that arises from air pollution. Many common species of algae are used in this fuel production. The fuel produced from algae serves as the better alternative for other depleting fossil fuels. The biomass from algae are used to produce algal oil and the biofuel are extracted from the algal oil by several extraction processes.
