ABSTRACT
Renewable and clean energy options are to be explored to combat the unprecedented energy crisis and environmental pollution. It is felt that the stock of diesel is fast reducing and therefore alternate approach is imminent. An alternative that has received attention is the growth and harvest of microalgae for the production of biodiesel via extraction of the microalgae oil. Microalgae are accomplished of assimilating inorganic nitrogen and phosphorous from wastewater into the biomass. This research work focused on developing a technique of processing algal biomass. The single-step extraction technique developed is capable of extracting oil from algal biomass. Properties of biodiesel were compared with ASTM standards and it was found with high-quality biodiesel.
