Bioprospecting for High Lipid Producing Microalgae for Biodiesel Production
Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2019, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
Fuels based upon crude oils are become unsustainable because of draining resources and also their contribution of those fuels to the release of carbon dioxide into the environment is high. Hence, Microalgae have gained major interest as a sustainable source to replace these resources due to their high lipid content for biodiesel production on a commercial scale. This paper describes the screening of twelve microalgal species isolated from marine water resources of Kerala coastline for biodiesel production and the GC MS MS analysis of their fatty acid methyl esters FAMEs . Lipid content of each isolated microalgal species has been investigated. Based on the lipid content, biodiesel was produced from Oscillatoria sp., which showed maximum lipid yield 44.8 among isolates by acid catalyzed transesterification reaction and resulting fatty acid methyl esters FAMEs content was analyzed by GC MS. Fatty acid profiling of the biodiesel showed high content of C12 1 with 43.8 , C10 0 with 14.86 , C12 3 15.5 , C18 1 with 18.44 , C19 1 with 4.57 and C20 0 with 3 respectively. Aravindh. S | P.
