Abstract:Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae have emerged as a prevalent source of antioxidants in cosmetics and nutritional products. Additionally, numerous researchers have posited the potential of this microalgae to produce fatty acid methyl esters (FAME). Nevertheless, the optimization of the production of FAME from H. pluvialis oil has not been investigated. In this study, the transesterification reaction of H. pluvialis bio-oil was optimized using the response surface methodology, resulting in optimal experimental… Show more
