The potential of algae-based biofuels & bioproducts lies in their ability to generate high lipid yields with minimal resource consumption. Unlike terrestrial crops, microalgae can thrive in diverse environments, including saline and wastewater, making them a sustainable biofuel source. Advances in genetic engineering and cultivation techniques are enhancing lipid accumulation for biodiesel and bioethanol production. Beyond fuels, algae contribute to bioproducts such as bioplastics, pharmaceuticals, and animal feed, increasing their commercial viability. Scalable photobioreactors and innovative harvesting methods are addressing cost challenges, making algae-based biofuels a promising alternative. With ongoing research into strain selection and metabolic engineering, the commercialization of algae-derived energy solutions is steadily advancing.
