Abstract
- Algae species like Schizochytrium sp. are resilient photosynthetic factories that produce large quantities of fatty acids that can be converted to biodiesel. These lipids must be extracted from the raw biomass before they can be used as biofuel feedstocks or other bioproducts such as hydrogen. In this paper, hydrogen production by steam reforming of schizochytrium algae oil are studied. The effects of continuous microwave and intermittent microwave, freezing and thawing times of different mass fractions, time of alkali heat and other factors on the ratio of cell disruption and ultrasonic-assisted ethanol extraction are considered. The results show that the highest lipid yield can reach by ultrasonic-assisted ethanol extraction from the schizochytrium algae which are pretreated by alkali heat method. The hydrogen production from steam reforming of the lipids, which are extracted by ethanol with ultrasonic-assisted from algae after alkali thermal pretreated is proposed. • Hydrogen produced by steam reforming of Schizochytrium algae oil. • Algae oil extracted by ethanol with ultrasonic-assisted from pretreated algae. • Algae pretreated by potassium hydroxide at 60 °C.
