ASI: Dunaliella marine microalgae to drop‐in replacement liquid transportation fuel

Abstract: Microalgae are a promising biofuels feedstock, theoretically yielding concentrations of triacylglycerides (TAGs) per unit area that are far higher than traditional feedstocks due to their rapid growth. Dunaliella is particularly advantageous as a feedstock because it is currently commercially mass cultured, thrives in salt water, and has no cell wall. Fourteen strains of Dunaliella have been investigated for growth rates and lipid production in mass culture and tested for enhanced lipid production under a rang… Show more

“…Indeed, the few contributions utilizing real algae oil samples are limited by the fact that deoxygenation has been accomplished via hydrogen-intensive HDO [11], and/or using precious metal catalysts [43]. Moreover, most studies have been conducted in batch (or semi-batch) mode [19,20,[43][44][45], these tests providing no information about the stability of the catalyst under the reaction conditions. Therefore, the catalytic upgrading of the algal lipids extracted and purified by the aforementioned methods was performed via hydrogen-efficient deCO x using an inexpensive Ni-based catalyst [16,23], a fixed-bed reactor and relatively mild operating conditions, this approach having afforded promising diesel yields in recent work [22][23][24].…”

“…Dunaliella spp . lack a cell wall [ 4 ], which enables the extraction of oil droplets by osmotic shock in freshwater as one of the most inexpensive and environmental friendly ways to extract oil from algae cultures [ 10 ]. Despite all these useful traits of Dunaliella for bioenergy production, production of algae oil for liquid transportation fuels is commercially not viable.…”

“…Lowering the NaCl concentration in selective plates allows for reduced concentration of antibiotics used in selection (81, 83). However, some antibiotics such as streptomycin and kanamycin, cannot be used for selection even in low salt concentrations (112)(113)(114)(115). For Marine microalgae species, selectable markers/ resistance genes (Table 1) are BAR/phosphinothricin, BLE/zeocin, CAT/chloramphenicol, PDS(L504R)/ norflurazon, NAT/nourseothricin (70,74,(116)(117)(118).…”
