Abstract

Microalgae-based biofuels are an appropriate alternative to fossil fuels due to their sustainable merits over terrestrial feedstock. Microalgae is a unicellular and simple multicellular autotrophic microorganism consists of high nutrition and photosynthetic utilization degree. Microalgae are abundant in the environment in seawater, freshwater, and wastewater. Microalgae is a promising feedstock to produce biofuel since they are capable of mitigating CO2 emission and accumulating lipids for their high biomass productivity. Many microalgal species contain high content of lipids and require a simple cultivation process than other plant crops for the production of biofuels. Microalgae can produce several biofuels such as biodiesel, biomethanol, biohydrogen, bioethanol, etc. The production of biofuels from microalgae is a potential process to encounter future energy demand since microalgae are cultivated year by year. The current review paper clearly describes the different culturing methods of microalgae, different harvesting techniques used in microalgae separation, and then finally, different biofuel produced from microalgal species.

微藻生物燃料研究进展综述

基于微藻的生物燃料是化石燃料的合适替代品，因为它们比陆地原料具有可持续的优点。微藻是一种单细胞、简单的多细胞自养微生物，具有较高的营养和光合利用率。微藻广泛存在于海水、淡水和废水中。微藻具有减少二氧化碳排放和积累脂质的特点，是生产生物燃料的一种很有前景的原料。许多微藻种类含有高含量的脂质，并且需要比其他植物作物更简单的种植过程来生产生物燃料。微藻可生产生物柴油、生物乙醇、生物氢、生物乙醇等多种生物燃料。从微藻生产生物燃料是一个潜在的过程，以满足未来的能源需求，因为微藻是逐年种植的。本文详细介绍了微藻的不同培养方法、微藻分离中使用的不同收获技术以及从微藻中生产的不同生物燃料。
