This is an open access article under the CC BY-NC-ND license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/) Peer-review under responsibility of the scientific committee of ICAE2018 – The 10th International Conference on Applied Energy.Research has been conducted to increase carbohydrate and lipid content in tropical microalgae biomass which can further be processed into biofuel. Three species of tropical microalgae, Chlorella vulgaris, Scenedesmus obliquus and Ankistrodesmus sp. were grown under controlled conditions in a photobioreactor which is fed with pure CO2 of 5%, 10%, 15% and 18% (v/v) concentrations. The addition of 10% pure CO2 that is continuously flowed at a flow rate of 5L/min into the photobioreactor increased the production of carbohydrates and lipids in biomass. Biomass C. vulgaris harvested by bioflocculation method yields lipid and carbohydrate contents of 23.57% and 18.35% respectively, while C. vulgaris harvested by centrifugation has a lipid content of about 30% lower. Biofloculation harvesting also increased the productivity of carbohydrates and lipids in the dried biomass of mixculture microalgae. High productivity and high carbohydrate and lipid content make algae a potentially important future source of biofuel.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Biofloculation,Carbohydrate content,Chlorella vulgaris,Controlled conditions,Lipid productivities,Oil contents,Scenedesmus obliquus,Tropical microalgae[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Biofloculation,Biofuel,Harvesting,Oil Content,Tropical Microalgae[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][{‘$’: ‘The authors would like to thank the Directorate for Research and Community Services as well as the Directorate General for Research and Development Establishment at the Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education Indonesia for funding this study through the Post Doctoral Grant Program (Hibah Pasca Doctor) 2018.’}, {‘$’: ‘The authors would like to thank the Directorate for Research and Community Services as well as the Directorate General for Research and Development Establishment at the Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education Indonesia for funding this study through the Post Doctoral Grant Pr ogram (Hibah Pasca Doctor) 2018.’}][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1016/j.egypro.2019.01.310[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
