THIRD GENERATION BIOTEHANOL PRODUCTION
Journal Title: BULETINUL INSTITUTULUI POLITEHNIC DIN IASI, CHIMIE SI INGINERIE CHIMICA - Year 2016, Vol 62, Issue 2
Abstract
The algal biomass offers great potential as a sustainable feedstock which can be processed for the third generation bioethanol production, due to its many advantages: rapid growth rate, the ability to accumulate important amounts of carbohydrates, all the materials produced are nontoxic and biodegradable. However, in order to produce high concentrations of ethanol, it is necessary to convert all specific carbohydrate components of microalgae: glucan, sulphated polysaccharides, mannitol, alginate, agar, and carrageenan. This paper describes different types of algae and presents the main steps for the technology employed in the production of third generation bioethanol.
