Effects of Pretreatment on Microalgae Drying
The use of microalgae for biodiesel or solid fuel production is a promising alternative for reducing the dependence on fossil fuel. When converting microalgae into fuels, a large amount of energy is consumed for dewatering and/or drying the microalgae. Pretreatment methods such as thermal treatment,...
