the refining of algal oils into fungible transportation fuels in Cameroon

But with various hydroprocessing technologies used by refineries to catalytically remove impurities or reduce molecular weight, the algal oils could be made into a kerosene-like fuel very similar

Algae-based fuel production is another option for heat integration with the oil refinery industry. The present article describes a case study of the

All the algal oils required pretreatment to remove metals and phosphorous before conversion to fuels. A two-step process was used for conversion to produce jet and diesel

The ideal way we can fill this enormous and widening gap in liquid transportation fuels is by developing fuels which meet the following criteria Fuels that are completely fungible (100%

Most uses of oil, such as gasoline and jet fuels, require reforming. This study focuses on the development of the reforming method most suited to algal oil.

The currently used techniques for the production of bio-crude oil need to be upgraded for the enhanced production. This book chapter discusses the sustainable

Biodiesel Magazine is a trade journal dedicated to objective, independent coverage of biodiesel news, events and information relevant to the global industry. With

Another processing route to convert biomass into green diesel fuels that are compatible with petroleum-derived diesel fuels is also focused on the esterification of oils with

Currently, most research into efficient algal‐oil production is being done in the private sector. If predictions from small scale production experiments are borne out, then using algae to

Conclusion This review article focuses on the research and development efforts to achieve sustainable bioenergy production, environmental remediation, and transformation of agro

Algae can be converted into various types of fuels, depending on the production technologies and the part of the cells used. The lipid, or oily part of the algae biomass can be extracted and

It has been stated by Espinoza Pérez et al. (2025) that the concept of a biorefinery is comparable to that of an oil refinery, with the end aim being the conversion of biomass into

Several emerging technologies are aiming to meet renewable fuel standards, mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, and provide viable alternatives to fossil fuels. Direct conversion of solar energy

Goal Statement Demonstrate a technically and economically viable approach for converting renewable biomass feedstocks to sustainable and fungible transportation fuels Meet desired

Learn about algae oil its definition, benefits, and different types in this comprehensive guide. Uncover the potential of this eco-friendly and nutrient-rich oil.

Converting renewable microalgae biomass into liquid fuels is one of the promising way. However, the existence of nitrogen heteroatom and metal elements in microalgal bio

The high prices of biodiesel and hydrogen make directly blending finished bio-oils into refinery final products economically less favorable than co-processing HDO-oils with

An algal feedstock or biomass may contain a very high oil fraction, and thus could be used for the production of advanced biofuels via different conversion processes. Its major

The project attempts to make use of oil-producing algae in wastewater treatment. The result will help to expand the utilization of oil that is produced from wastewater.

New method of converting algal oil to transportation fuels Date: June 15, 2025 Source: Tohoku University Summary: A new method of converting squalene, which is
