Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the above patents, the evaluation of the oil production capacity of algae under different culture conditions in different devices is unclear and inconsistent, and it is difficult to make horizontal comparisons
[0005] Cetane number, as an index to characterize the spontaneous combustion of biodiesel, is internationally recognized as an important evaluation index for the quality of biodiesel, but the actual operation of cetane number detection is complicated, and the related equipment is expensive and popular.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for evaluating a microalgae biodiesel producing capacity. The method comprises steps that: (1) microalgae cells are collected and quenched; (2) aliphatic acid in the cells are extracted; (3) the aliphatic acid is subject to methyl esterification; (4) GC-MS detection is carried out; (5) a daily yield is calculated; and (6) evaluation is carried out, wherein the biodiesel producing capacity of the microalgae is determined according to cetane numbers. With the method provided by the invention, a standard can be provided for comparing the biodiesel producing capacities of different microalgae varieties under different culturing systems. Therefore, a basis is provided for optimal algae variety selecting and culturing technology optimizing.

Description

field of invention [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biofuels and relates to a method for evaluating the oil production ability of microalgae. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, human beings are increasingly dependent on energy, which forms a sharp contradiction with the increasingly depleted fossil energy reserves. In addition, the rapid consumption of energy has also caused damage to the environment, and the emission of a large amount of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, has made the greenhouse effect increasingly serious. The development of sustainable green new energy provides a solution to this series of problems and has attracted widespread attention. Among them, using oil-rich biomass as raw material to extract the mixture of fatty acid methyl esters, that is, biodiesel, provides a broad prospect for the development of energy. Microalgae, in particular, has received more and more attention in the field of...
