The potential use of microalgae as a feedstock for bioenergy

Current trends in the use of renewable energy plant are in the review. The biomass of microalgae is considered as the most promising renewable raw materials due to the high growth rate and productivity, superior to other cultures. Although large-scale production technology of high-biomass to produce biofuels are in the initial stage of development, the progress made in recent years, suggest the creation of the industrial processes of production in the near future. Developed modern catalytic methods (transesterification, hydrocracking) allow efficient processing of the biomass of algaein biofuels. At the same time to obtain high-quality hydrocarbon lipids of microalgae exposed to several changes: hydrolysis to remove the phosphorus-containing compounds, transesterification with methanol on heterogeneous catalysts, hydro deoxygenation (hydrocracking) and isomerization. The growing number of studies and a variety of ways of algae processing can talk about their great potential as a feedstock for bioenergy.
