ABSTRACT

As requirement of energy sources are increasing day by day, uses of fuels is also increasing. We are using only 10% of renewable energy resources and 90% of fossil fuel in day to day life. As side effects of fossil fuels use global warming and natural imbalance are also issues. On other hand, we don’t have much amount of fossil fuel for upcoming years but as per day to day requirement of energy resources it is highly demanded that alternate option for fossil fuel must be found. Microalgae seem to be very useful microorganism which can produce biofuel. But production of microalgae is very expensive due to its quantity of lipid, carbohydrate and hydrogen. Cost of production of biofuel from microalgae made production of microalgal biofuel infeasible. Here pros and cons as well as introduction of biofuel from microalgae is discussed. Keywords: Microalgae, Biofuel, Energy resources
