Abstract: Microalgae gives the great impression being to be a prominent source biomass for oil production that has the capacity of downright the fossil fuel. In this earth’s surface is protected with 80% of water, so microalgae would truly be inexhaustible option of prospect for the environment needs. Microalgae have been suggested as a promising oil feed stock and have been called the third-generation feedstock. In this study, we talk about the unique and relational valued prospect of C. vulgaris and also highlights the biomass, oil extraction, solvent system and compound properties. The reflux extraction method was used to extract oil from C. vulgaris. The oil extraction of C. vulgaris biomass using heptane as a dissolvable at the following optimum condition, stirring rate of 700 RPM, temperature of 85°C and extraction time at 6 hours. Then the compounds present in oil were anatomized by GCMS studies.
Keywords: Microalgae, C. Vulgaris, Heptane, GCMS.
Scope of the Article: Predictive Analysis
