Abstract
⺠Acetone, butanol, and ethanol (ABE) can be produced from algae biomass. ⺠Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum can produce ABE using wastewater algae. ⺠Acid/base pretreatment of the algae feedstock increases ABE yields. ⺠Supplementation of sugar or enzymes to pretreated algae increases ABE yields. ⺠ABE production from wastewater algae is not described in the refereed literature.
