Second generation biofuels: high-efficiency microalgae for biodiesel production
Peer M. Schenk,Skye R. Thomas-Hall,Evan Stephens,Ute C. Marx,Jan H. Mussgnug,Clemens Posten,Olaf Kruse,Ben Hankamer +7 more
TL;DR: A review of second generation biodiesel production systems using microalgae can be found in this paper, where the main advantages of second-generation microalgal systems are that they: (1) have a higher photon conversion efficiency (as evidenced by increased biomass yields per hectare): (2) can be harvested batch-wise nearly all-year-round, providing a reliable and continuous supply of oil: (3) can utilize salt and waste water streams, thereby greatly reducing freshwater use: (4) can couple CO2-neutral fuel production with CO2 sequestration: (
