Research Situation and Prospect of Microalgae Biodiesel
As a good biorenewable energy, microalgae biodiesel may play an strategic role in resolving the energy crisis and global wanning. The development of microalgae biodiesel was summarised from the following aspects:the technology process for producing microalgae biodiesel, the oil-rich microalgae species, the key bottle-neck of microalgae biodiesel (inconsistency between growth rate and oil content), the methods promoting oil-accumulation in microalgae, the large-scale culture (mass culture), the harvest of microalgae and the acquisition methods of microalgae biodiesel, etc. The future core research direction and prospect of microalgae biodiesel are also mentioned.
