... Thus, Egypt is home to a wide range of microalgal species that may possess the potential for biodiesel production. The majority of microalgal strains with high lipid production are marine microalgae (Sheehan et al. 1998), these marine microalgae have particularly high potential due to their tolerance to diverse environmental conditions like salinity, temperature, and contamination, which can arise during open pond cultivation (Chew et al. 2018). ...
