OPTIMUM PRODUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF BIODIESEL FROM MICROCYSTIS AERUGINOSA ALGAE

This work examined the optimum production and characterization of biodiesel from Microcystis aeruginosa (M. aeruginosa). Optimization with Minitab software was used to design the experiment using Central Composite Design (CCD). The found optimum values of the solvent to biomass ratio, extraction te...
