Microalgae and Macroalgae for Third-Generation Bioethanol Production

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Liquid Biofuels: Bioethanol

Part of the book series: Biofuel and Biorefinery Technologies ((BBT,volume 12))

Abstract

First-generation bioethanol, made from edible feedstocks, are currently not regarded as a sustainable source due to the food versus fuel dilemma. Second-generation bioethanol, despite being made from non-edible sources, are not cost-effective owing to their high production cost. To avoid the drawbacks of its predecessor, third-generation bioethanol from microalgae and macroalgae have been considered a promising replacement to depleting petroleum fuels. In this chapter, the progress of research on micro and macroalgae for third-generation bioethanol production is discussed. This chapter thoroughly explains the use of microalgae and macroalgae for bioethanol production, starting from strains selection, cultivation, harvesting and drying, to hydrolysis, fermentation and distillation. To become a competitive source for bioethanol, the production of microalgae should be cheap and highly efficient. Therefore, each of the above processes should be improved and optimised. At the end of this chapter, the future direction on bioethanol production from microalgae and macroalgae is highlighted.
