Abstract
⺠High pressure thermal hydrolysis (HPTH) pretreatment enhances algal digestibility. ⺠HPTH increases methane yield from digestion of algae & lipid extracted algal residue. ⺠HPTH has no affect on rate of methane production from algae. ⺠Lipid extracted algal biomass has a higher rate of methane production than raw algae. ⺠Digestion of algae solubilises nutrients which can be recycled for algal growth.
