Abstract
Bioethanol is one of the alternative sources of oil resources which received attention with biodiesel. Many countries produce bioethanol from food sources such as corn and sugarcane, but it causes food-energy conflicts and farmland problem. So it needs to focus on new biomass which is sustainable, renewable, cost-effective and do not occurred any conflicts. Algae are one of the bioma
Shortcomings of current process
1. Activated carbon adsorption
2. Direct combustion
3. Catalytic oxidation
4. Ozone oxidation
1. Inconsistent efficiency
Efficiency sharply drops when it works for long time.
It happens as nutrients for microorganisms are insufficient.
2. Unequal growth of microorganisms
Efficiency decreases, hard to handle when factors change suddenly
