Abstract

Microalgae's high lipid content makes them an alternative raw material for the generation of biofuel. This research examines the potential of Aurantiochytrium microalgae sourced from mangrove forests. The capacity to create omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, such DHA, which have a high economic value, is one benefit of Aurantiochytrium microalgae and makes integrated production with biofuel production feasible. The possible biofuel products from Aurantiochytrium microalgae, including biodiesel and bioviation fuel, are reviewed in this research. These microalgae go through multiple steps in the biofuel production process, including isolation, cultivation, lipid extraction, and hydroprocessing and transesterification to turn the algae into biodiesel or biojet fuel. The first steps toward producing biofuel from Aurantiochytrium microalgae obtained from Indonesian mangrove forests are expected to be laid by this research.

Abstract

Industrial wastewater generally contains heavy metalssuch as lead, cadmium, arsenic, nickel, chromium and mercury. Contamination of water with these elements is very dangerous and will pollute the environment, so a suitable waste water treatment is required. This review aims to find out the efficient methods of handling industrial wastewater and the benefits of biomass. Many scientific methods are used in this regard, including adsorption, chemical precipitation, ion exchange, electrochemical treatment, membrane filtration, coagulation and flocculation. However, some of these techniques have drawbacks such aswill produce a large amount of metal sludge, making it difficult to recycle metal, and the formation of toxic sludge or other wastes. Of all these techniques, adsorption with adsorbent biomasshas been widely known because it is an economical, effective and environmentally friendly processing technique, so this method is suitable for treating industrial wastewater. The use of biomass as an adsorbent is intendedto help reduce dependence on fossil raw materials and greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change.
