Abstract

Microalgae have been observed as a viable biomass for the manufacture of biofuels, but the scaled-up culture of these organisms has challenges regarding freshwater resource use. To overcome the restrictions of water resources, it is essential to obtain robust marine strains that can produce triacylglycerols and high-value-added metabolites. The present study was conducted to identify microalgae from the Indian Sea and its environs which included toxified sites, tenable for biofuel production. 4 stations belong to the Nellore district (S-1 Mypadu, S-2 Kothakoduru, S-3 Nelatru, S4- Krishna Patnam) with this district is special for aquaculture industries like shrimp and fish culture also more hatcheries and processing, and Nellore beaches located in the east coast of Bay of Bengal of India. Sixty-four (64) species of microalgae were acquired in 5 terminals. On further isolation, 19 species with a process-oriented pressure choice were developed through artificial insemination cultures. This basic research provides an overview of the isolation and characterization of available resources of marine microalgae for biofuel production.

Conclusion

From the present study the marine microalgae in the SPSR-Nellore district of Andhra Pradesh is distinctive in their quality and was determined to be a potentially economical feedstock for biofuel production further they could be cultured in seawater with high lipid yield. This paper provided an overview of the isolation and characterization of available resources of marine microalgae for biofuel production.
