Fuad Hossain, Md. published the artcileIdentification and culturing of cyanobacteria isolated from freshwater bodies of Sri Lanka for biodiesel production, Formula: C11H22O2, the main research area is Croococcidiopsis Cephalothrix Leptolyngbya methyl octanoate biodiesel Sri Lanka; Biodiesel; Cyanobacteria; Gas chromatography.
The present study was carried out to investigate cyanobacteria as a potential source for biodiesel production isolated from fresh water bodies of Sri Lanka. FAME component was identified using gas chromatog. (GC). Atotal of 74 uni-algal cultures were obtained from Biofuel and Bioenergy laboratory of the National Institute of Fundamental Studies (NIFS), Kandy, Sri Lanka. The total lipid content was recorded highest in Oscillatoria sp. (31.9 ± 2.01% of dry biomass) followed by Synechococcus sp. (30.6 ± 2.87%), Croococcidiopsis sp. (22.7 ± 1.36%), Leptolyngbya sp. (21.15 ± 1.99%), Limnothrixsp. (20.73 ± 3.26%), Calothrix sp. (18.15 ± 4.11%) and Nostoc sp. (15.43 ± 3.89%), Cephalothrixsp. (13.95 ± 4.27%), Cephalothrix Komarekiana (13.8 ± 3.56%) and Westiellopsisprolifica (12.80 ± 1.97%). FAME anal. showed cyanobacteria contain Me palmitoleate, Linolelaidic acid Me ester, Cis-8,11,14-eicosatrienoic acid Me ester, Cis-10-heptadecanoic acid Me ester, Me myristate, Me pentadecanoate, Me octanoate, Me decanoate, Me laurate, Me tridecanoate, Me palmitoleate, Me pentadeconoate, Me heptadeconoate, Linolaidic acid Me ester, Me erucate, Me myristate, Myristoloeic acid, Me palmitate, Cis-9-oleic acid Me ester, Me arachidate and Cis-8,11,14-ecosatrieconoic acid Me ester. The present study revealed that cyanobacteria isolated from Sri Lanka are potential source for biodiesel industry because of their high fatty acid content.
Saudi Journal of Biological Sciences published new progress about Biodiesel fuel. 110-42-9 belongs to class esters-buliding-blocks, name is Methyl decanoate, and the molecular formula is C11H22O2, Formula: C11H22O2.
