Microfungal strains—potential lipid producers for biodiesel

Microfungal strains—potential lipid producers for biodiesel The application potential of microfungal strains (Cadophora malorum, Mucor circinelloides, Trichoderma viride, nonsporulating culture Mycelia sterilia) as promising lipid producers is investigated. The C. malorum strain is found to be optimal for oil sludge recycling into biofuel. Its palmitic acid content is 52.9%, and it ensures a cetane number of the obtained biodiesel. The ability of the C. malorum strain to degrade n-alkanes and polyaromatic hydrocarbons allows the effective bioremediation of oil sludge to be performed. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology Springer Journals

Abstract

The application potential of microfungal strains (Cadophora malorum, Mucor circinelloides, Trichoderma viride, nonsporulating culture Mycelia sterilia) as promising lipid producers is investigated. The C. malorum strain is found to be optimal for oil sludge recycling into biofuel. Its palmitic acid content is 52.9%, and it ensures a cetane number of the obtained biodiesel. The ability of the C. malorum strain to degrade n-alkanes and polyaromatic hydrocarbons allows the effective bioremediation of oil sludge to be performed.
