Modelling of Microalgae Growth and Oil Production by Using Sewage and Carbon Dioxide for Biodiesel

With the depletion of the world fossil oil reserves, microalgae biodiesel might become one of the economic, renewable and carbon-neutral sources of transportation biofuels. This study investigates marine microalgae growth and biodiesel production by cultivating highly productive oleaginous microalg...
