dc.description.abstract	Fossil fuel energy resources are unsustainable. World reserves are gradually depleting and the greenhouse gas emissions associated with their use are contributing to global warming. Therefore, there are vigorous research initiatives all aimed at developing alternative fuel resources that are both sustainable and carbon neutral. Based on contemporary research, third generation biofuels that are specifically derived from microalgae are considered to be a technically viable alternative energy resource that is free from the major problems associated with the use of fossil fuels. This project investigated the use of microalgae for biodiesel production, including their cultivation, harvesting, and processing. The microalgae species most suitable for biodiesel production in Bangladesh are mentioned as well.	en_US
