Abstract
⺠The dynamics of triacylglycerol accumulation in nine microalgal strains were compared. ⺠When exposed to nitrogen starvation, four species accumulated over 35% (w/w) TAG. ⺠Simultaneous TAG accumulation and sustained biomass productivity was achieved. ⺠Very high volumetric productivities were achieved (over 300 mg TAG lâ1 dayâ1). ⺠Scenedesmus obliquus and Chlorella zofingiensis are most promising for TAG production.
