... justify;">Production of biofuels at commercial level has been perceived as sustainable solution to the problem of energy and economic crisis. Of all the liquid biofuels, an important one is biodiesel, the fatty acids methyl esters. Due to beneficial decomposition of bio-waste resources towards clear environments, oils from single cell microbes (yeasts) are gaining attention. Further cost reliance of these microbes to produc...

...lity of
extended use of biofuels including wood in place of fossil
fuels in the developed countries. Some efforts were also
directed towards establishment of energy plantations to
reduce the need for fossil fuels and improve the lot of
rural poor in third world countries. In the latter case, the
efforts made little impact on existing enegry situation due
to a number of reasons. The finanical inputs were rather
small and that too scattered over large ...

...building-block chemical, biofuels, bioplastic and value-added products. However, implementation of these cell-free systems at industrial production scale requires key considerations of sustainable carbon source, co-factors and energy regeneration pathways and biocatalyst engineering and recycling strategies to proceed towards sustainable production. At present, extensive research is required to address challenges of high cost associated co-factor supply and op...

...riendly, and sustainable biofuels. Fossil fuels, which currently meet over 80-85% of global energy demands, are rapidly depleting, with Pakistan heavily dependent on them for nearly 88% of its energy needs. This study aimed to evaluate the bioenergy potential of Spirogyra microalgae for biodiesel production, offering a sustainable solution to fossil fuel dependence and environmental degradation. Lipids from microalgae Spirogyra were extracted using n-Hexane as...
