Isolation and utilization of Dictyosphaerium ehrenbergianum Nageli for biodiesel production: lipid extraction and biodiesel property analysis

Potential of <i>Dictyosphaerium</i> sp. LC172264 Concomitant Remediation of Cassava Wastewater and Accumulation of Lipids for Biodiesel Production

“…Similar results of fatty acid class and proportion had recently been reported in D. subpitacus and Desmodesmus armatus when they were cultivated in cassava wastewater for biofuels [5] [11]. The fatty acid methyl ester production by microalga Dictyosphaerium ehrenbergianum Nageli showed that oleic, palmitic and linoleic acids were the predominant fatty acids which were closely related to the acids obtained in the present study [16].…”

“…Jiang et al [15] used a high-lipid producing Dictyosphaerium ehrenbergianum grown in struvite precipitated liquid digestate for biodiesel production, with lipid and biomass productivities being higher than when cultured in the standard BG-11 medium. The microalga Dictyosphaerium ehrenbergianum Nageli has been reported to be useful in biodiesel production with oleic, palmitic and linoleic acids as the predominant fatty acids [16]. They also demonstrated that the qualities of the biodiesel produced with this organism as conforming to the standard qualities and therefore recommended Dictyosphaerium ehrenbergianum Nageli to be good feedstock for biodiesel production.…”

A tribological characteristics and experimental analysis of novel chlorella biodiesel blends on engine performance

“…The extrusion of the B10 blend was lowered compared to mineral diesel. The former was due to the lubricating film of the biodiesel while the higher extrusion of the latter was attributed to higher thermal energy, wear rate, and friction coefficient [28]. The remaining gasoline mixes showed the same deformation, however from B60 to B100, there were some dark areas owing to oxidation corrosion.…”
