Abstract

Biofuels have gained significant interest as an alternative fuel in recent years owing to their environmental sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and the ability to blend with traditional fuels like gasoline without requiring engine modifications. The use of microalgae for biofuel production is universally preferred due to its energy efficiency and environmental sustainability; current research is geared towards enhancing the production of microalgae-biofuel from the initial stages to the final product as it is a cost-effective fuel option. The use of different types of nano-additives at different stages of microalgae cultivation and incorporation into biofuel produced noteworthy improvements in the final product. This chapter focuses on the prospective uses of nano-additives in microalgae cultivation, microalgal biomass conversion to biofuels, and biofuel combustion improvement for revolutionary advancements in biofuel technology.
