Phytoplankton (cyanobacteria and microalgae) can convert light energy and mineral nutrients into organic matter. They are responsible for the photosynthetic fixation of around 50×10^15 g C annually
Microalgae with high amount of lipid content, ranging from 20-75%, belong to Botryococcus braunii, Chlorella, Schizochytium, Scenedesmus etc. These microalgae can be used as feedstock for biofuels.

Phytoplankton are tiny, plant-like organisms that drift in bodies of water, playing a crucial role in the food chain and the production of oxygen.
Cultivation of microalgae in wastewater could significantly contribute to wastewater treatment, biodiesel production, and thus the transition to renewable energy.

Various microalgal species accumulate important biofuel precursors such as fatty acids and hydrocarbons.
Desmodesmus sp., a member of green algae.
Microalgae are microscopic organisms that invisible to the naked eye.
Scenedesmus obliquus microalgae A green microalgae that is being researched as a potential source of biofuel and as a food supplement due to its high protein and nutrient content.
The ubiquitous freshwater green microalga Desmodesmus has distinct features such as epi-structural morphology, varies from colony to unicells with spines to spineless.
Desmodesmus is a green microalgae that is frequently found in aquatic environments. Because of the ease of culturing and high biomass
productivity, it has attracted attention as a material for biofuel
Acutodesmus is a green microalgae that plays an important roles to global carbon cycling and hold great promise as feedstocks for biotechnology applications such as food, biofuels or biohydrogen.

Desmodesmus is a green microalgal genus that is frequently found in aquatic environments. Its high biomass productivity and potential as a source of lipids
Microalgae have been recognized as a promising alternative source for oil production. Several species of microalgae can be induced to overproduce specific lipids and fatty acids.
Scenedesmus is a genus of green algae, in the class Chlorophyceae. They are colonial and non-motile. At the present they separate to various genus such as Tetradesmus, Desmodesmus, Verrucodesmus.
