 This study found that nanochloropsis oculata, exdubocellulus sp, and bedulphia sp had the best potential for use in biodiesel production, as they met both the European EN14214 and American ASTM D6751-02 standards. The study also showed that the fatty acid profile of the algae was important in determining its suitability for biodiesel production, with the most important factors being the amount of icosapentinoic acid, EPA, present. Additionally, the study found that the culture growth stage and nutrition levels can affect the fatty acid composition of the algae, which could potentially lead to different results depending on the conditions under which the algae is grown.
