DOI: 10.1016/j.jclepro.2018.01.036
Abstract: Abstract Direct-transesterification is an effective and economical method to extract fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) from microalgal biomass by omitting lipid separation step, but it still generates glycerol residue requiring further treatment. To minimize the… read more here.
