摘要: Abstract To prepare quality biodiesel from microalgal lipids in pilot-scale reactors, methyl esters cells were extracted with hexane after direct transesterification and then refined by vacuum distillation. The comprehensively characterized via gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, thermogravimetric analysis. ester at 255 °C–259 °C was found to be the ideal fuel a high fatty acid content of 94.6%, low combustion activation energy 42.1 kJ/mol, proper carbon-chain length distributed C14–C18. Impurities hexane, such as alkanes short-chain esters, separated 105 °C–254 °C owing their polarity molecular weight. Highly unsaturated long collected 260 °C–280 °C boiling point. Separation alkanes, highly through distillation effectively improved properties enhanced economic feasibility lipids.
