Description

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of algae-based biofuel technologies as a key pathway toward achieving global low-carbon and circular energy goals. It explores the integration of biochemical and thermochemical conversion routes, including transesterification, fermentation, hydrothermal liquefaction, pyrolysis, gasification, and anaerobic digestion, to transform algal biomass into sustainable fuels such as biodiesel, biogas, bio-oil, and renewable hydrogen. It also explores recent advancements to increase product yield.

The study covers:
• A comparative assessment of major algal biofuel pathways based on energy efficiency, CO2 mitigation potential, process scalability, and downstream integration
• An examination of the innovation ecosystem, profiling key technology developers, biorefinery operators, and research collaborations driving process optimization and commercialization
• A review of emerging patents, funding programs, and policy frameworks supporting algae-to-fuel development and deployment
The analysis highlights the strategic and transformative role of algal biomass as a third-generation feedstock in advancing next-generation, low-emission fuel systems aligned with global net-zero ambitions.
