Biodiesel Production Using Algal Technology

Biodiesel Production Using Algal Technology discusses obtaining clean and green biodiesel from marine macro and microalgae. The book covers the history (and disadvantages) of petrodiesel, the emerging role of cleaner fuel technologies, biodiesel production methods, conventional biodiesel sources, and novel biodiesel sources such as macro- and microalgae. The book also covers processing of algal biomass, and products such as biogas and bioethanol produced from used algal biomass.

This book is focused on the production of biodiesel from macro-algae and is an ideal source of data for biodiesel production methods and processing macroalgae for renewable energy production.

• Describes sources and technologies of biodiesel, a green fuel source
• Best source of data for biodiesel production methods involving macroalgae
