Microalgae biofuel production has been extensively evaluated through resource, economic
and life cycle assessments. Resource assessments consistently identify land as non-limiting …

Despite a substantial literature using life cycle assessment (LCA) approach, the extent to
which second and third generation biofuels are more sustainable than the first generation …

Microalgae is being investigated as a renewable transportation fuel feedstock based on
various advantages that include high annual yields, utilization of poor quality land, does not …

Life cycle analysis (LCA) of algal biodiesel production process can provide a quantitative
measure for its sustainability. In this paper, the published LCA studies of algae biodiesel …

The current and future consumption of petroleum-based plastics, which will be 20% of global
annual oil comsumption by 2050, is leading to the investigation and development of …

Microalgae have been promoted as the next frontier of green biotechnology and gained
widespread attention as desirable feedstocks for biofuels. Using conservative assumptions …

In the current literature, the life cycle, technoeconomic, and resource assessments of
microalgae-based biofuel production systems have relied on growth models extrapolated …

As a result of algae's promise as a renewable energy feedstock, numerous studies have
used Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to quantify the environmental performance of algal …

Autotrophic microalgae represent a potential feedstock for transportation fuels, but life cycle
assessment (LCA) studies based on laboratory-scale or theoretical data have shown mixed …

There is a need to explore alternative energy sources to meet the future energy demand in a
sustainable way. Algae could be a potential feed stock for biodiesel and other co-products …
