Pre-treatment optimization of Scenedesmus obliquus microalga for bioethanol production

The present work deals with the optimization of cellular disruption and sugar extraction from the microalgae Scenedesmusobliquus (Sc) for bioethanol production. Among the physical and physicochemical methods tested, the best results were obtained with acid hydrolysis by H2SO4 (2 N), at 120 °C for 30...
