Present study indicates the production of algal biodiesel from Anabaena variabilis. The research showed that the oil content in Anabaena variabilis was 45% by weight of dry biomass. The oil was extracted from the Anabaena variabilis biomass. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) was used to analyze the extracted oil. Several chemical constituents were defined after GC-Mass analysis. Among them, the constituents that can be used as biodiesel were Palmitic acid (C16H32O2), 3,3-Dimethoxy-2-butanone (C6H12O3), 2,2-Dimethoxybutane (C6H14O2) and 2,2-Dimethoxypropane (C5H12O2). The percentage of them were (2.3%), (2.18%), (8.51%) and (1.54%) respectively. |
