【 摘 要 】

Microalgae area promising source of raw material for biodiesel production. This review discussesthe latest developments related to the application of microalgae biomass forbiodiesel production. Characterization of fatty acid of microalgae and comparisonswith other sources of raw materials and processes are presented. Furthermore,technological perspectives and approaches for growing microalgae in photobioreactors,microalgal oil extraction techniques, and procedures for synthesizing biodieselare reviewed.
