(2017-06-28)The colony-forming green microalga Botryococcus braunii is a potential source of biofuel feedstocks as it produces large amount of liquid hydrocarbon oils that can be converted into combustion engine fuels. There are three ...
-
(2014-12-15)Microalgae have been envisioned as a future source of renewable energy. Both fossil fuel depletion and environmental concern have drawn more interest in microalgal biofuels, but the production cost of these biofuels are ...
-
(2012-07-16)The goal of this study was to characterize the nutritional contribution of microalgae to white-legged shrimp and optimize fish meal (FM) and fish oil (FO) inclusion levels in their diets in the presence of microalgae. ...
-
(2020-12-02)The need for developing alternative protein sources to meet future food demand has driven microalgae to re-emerge as a promising biomass source. Considering its ability to produce quality protein, microalgae has been studied ...
-
(2013-12-02)Increasing environmental concerns over greenhouse gas emissions, depleting petroleum reserves and rising oil prices has stimulated interest on biofuels production from biomass sources. This study explored on biofuels ...
