โœฆ Synopsis

Dunaliellu bioculatu, a marine unicellular euryhaline green alga, accumulated intracellular glycerol as a response to increaed osmolality due to increased concentrations of NaCl, KCl or sucrose, but not ethylene glycol. A decrease in salinity, below the normal, of the outel medium resulted in a decrease in the intracellular glycerol. Glycerol was retained (NaCl salinization) or released (KCl salinization) by the alga. Glycerol production slightly depended on photosynthesis since it took place in the light and in the dark.

Cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were immobilized in K-Carrageenan. Addition of sodium sulfite to the fermentation medium up to four percent led to glycerol yields of 25 to 27 g/l at temperatures below 31 ~ These results demonstrate that it is possible to direct the metabolism of immobilized cells

Algal cells of Dunaliella tertiolecta with a moisture content of 78.4 wt% were converted directly into oil by thermochemical liquefaction at around 300ยฐC and 10 MPa. The oil yield was about 37% on an organic basis. The oil obtained at a reaction temperature of 340ยฐC and holding time of 60min had a
