Abstract: Biofuels have emerged as an alternative source of energy in order to commensurate the damaging effects caused by fossil fuels and meet sustainable energy goals. Among microalgae, Chlorella vulgaris is identified as a promising species that can serve as a biofuel feedstock due to its high lipid content and rich nutrient profiles. This paper introduces chlorella vulgaris algae as a selective species in aquaculture for more efficient oil extraction based on algal lipid yield and describes the use of the Soxhlet method for its oil extraction, which is a first of its kind. Conditions and ratios, such as particle size, zeolite mass-to-volume ratios, and time factors for polymer solvent oil extraction, were investigated to enable higher oil yield, which was an advancement as compared to the conventional techniques. The oil obtained was further characterized in terms of physicochemical parameters showcasing the ability to meet the biodiesel quality requirements. In addition, this study presents unique findings of Chlorella vulgaris biodiesel blends in diesel engines, reporting lower emissions, with increased brake thermal efficiency. This paper highlights the feasibility of using Chlorella vulgaris algae, further providing direction to the biofuel sector for replacing fossil fuels since they are more environmentally sustainable.
Keywords: Algae oil Biodiesel Engine Chlorella vulgaris Soxhlet extraction method
