Inhaltsangabe

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Botryococcenes are the major oil constituents of the green algae Botryococcus braunii. The hydrocarbons these species produce can be chemically converted into fuels. Transesterification cannot be used to make biodiesel from botryococcenes, the major oil of Botryococcus braunii. This is because Botryococcene oil is not a ''vegetable oil'' but is instead a triterpene, and lacks the free oxygen for transesterification. It can be used as feedstock for hydrocracking in an oil refinery to produce octane, and kerosene. Up to 86% of its dry weight can be long chain hydrocarbons. There are several challenges which must be met in order to economically produce the desired alkanes such as gasoline. This will only be briefly covered in this article at this time, as it has only just begun
