Biotechnological conversions of crude glycerol, residue deriving from biodiesel production facilities, by strains of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica

(Corresponding) Papanikolaou S., Diamantopoulou P., Sarris D., Aggelis G.
Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
Aim of the present study was to assess the ability of four Yarrowia lipolytica strains (ACA-DC 50109, LFMB Y-20, ATCC 20460 and LMBF Y-45) to grow on biodiesel-derived crude glycerol, the principal residue-stream deriving from biodiesel manufacture. Initial trials were carried out in shake-flasks...Read more

High FAME yield Biodiesel from microalgae through nanocatalytic transesterification process.

Mittal V., (Corresponding) Ghosh U.
Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
Biodiesel production from microalgae is significantly important when reserves of petro-diesel are depleting, and utilization of vegetable oil-based fuel leads to food scarcity. The rapid growth and high lipid content of microalgae is an ideal feedstock for biodiesel production. The use of...Read more
