Characterisation of bio-oil extracted from microalgae Botryococcus sp. biomass grown in domestic and food processing wastewaters for valuable hydrocarbon production

Microalgae cultivation for biofuels feedstock and the value-added chemicals is a sustainable approach to the development of renewable energy generation. This study aims to establish a detailed hydrocarbon profile for freshwater green microalgae oil which extracted from local <i>Botryococcus</i> sp. biomass cultivated using domestic wastewater (DW) and food processing wastewater (FW).
