CONCLUSION

In an endeavor towards achieving optimal efficacy in extraction, the results reveal that sonication is the most efficient compared to other methods apart from the advantages such as easy to scale up, less complicated and reasonable time. These parameters directly depend upon the fatty acid composition of the biodiesel fuel during the transesterification reaction or storage conditions. However, the physical properties of fuel which includes ignition quality, combustion heat, cold filter plugging point (CFPP), oxidative stability, viscosity, and lubricity, has to be determined to assess the complete potential of Microcystis sp. for biofuel production.
