Abstract:The operation of hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of biomass is an enticing technique for the production of biocrude, which can serve as a viable alternative energy source to the growing universal energy demand and the pollution problem caused by fossil fuels. This article reviewed research publications that describe the elemental composition of Chlorella species biomass, biochemical analysis of the feedstock, the effects of the conditions of operating the Chlorella species biomass conversion, hydrothermal liqu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
