Abstract:Waste plastic conversion involves the treatment of plastic waste to transform in different forms of energy (heat, electricity, liquid fuels). Plastic can be converted into different forms of biofuel via thermochemical conversion methods (gasification, pyrolysis and liquefaction). Algal biomass can be converted into different forms of biofuel (crude bio-oil, bioethanol, biogas, biodiesel and bio-hydrogen) well as value added chemicals. Microalgal cells can accumulate more lipids over a shorter life cycle, they … Show more
