Physicochemical investigation of microalgal cell disruption technologies with energy consumption analysis

Effective microalgae biomass disruption is essential to generate free carbohydratesfor utilization in bioethanol production. The disruption of microalgae cells, usingsonication, high pressure homogenization (HPH), and microwave methods wasinvestigated under different treatment conditions including t...
