Effective pretreatment of wet microalgal biomass to enhance lipid extraction in biodiesel production
Abstract Biodiesel is a viable alternative to fossil fuels. Identifying and evaluating nonedible sources is essential to address ecological concerns and meet energy demands. Microalgae are effective for lipid production but their rigid cell walls hinder bioproduct release making the process energy‐intensive and costly.

Abstract The vision of using microalgae to obtain organic chemicals in a carbon‐neutral manner is intriguing. It promises to produce various substances including biofuels by photosynthesis, without competing with agricultural land. Processes have been established whereby microalgae undergo a growth phase followed by a stress phase, which induces lipid ...
