Chlorella sorokiniana thermogravimetric analysis and combustion characteristic indexes estimation

This work aimed to investigate thermal decomposition of microalgae throughout the different culture stages. For this purpose, Chlorella sorokiniana was cultured in photobioreactors, and microalgae biomass was sampled at different days throughout the development of the culture. The aim was to analyze...

For this purpose, Chlorella sorokiniana was cultured in photobioreactors, and microalgae biomass was sampled at different days throughout the development of the culture.

The first one encompassed the carbohydrates and proteins decomposition and the breakdown of hydrocarbon chains of fatty acids, whereas the second step was closely related to the combustion of the formed char.
