Investigation of light intensity, nutrient and carbon sources towards microalgae oil production via soxhlet extraction techniques

This study was carried out to study the optimized condition for microalgae cultivation in terms of light intensity, nutrient supply and carbon source to optimize the microalgae growth in order to produce high biomass with high lipid content. This is because to produce biodiesel, high microalgae lipi...
