Use of ultrasound for aiding lipid extraction and biodiesel production of microalgae harvested by chitosan

In this work, chitosan, a biodegradable flocculant, was investigated to determine its utility in flocculating microalgae, its effect on cell integrity, and its impact on lipid extraction and the conversion to fatty acid methyl ester (FAME). Results showed that chitosan adequately performed flocculat...
