Extraction of Algae Oil from Nannocloropsis sp.: A study of Soxhlet and Ultrasonic-Assisted Extractions

This study aims at describing the characteristics of the microalgae oil extraction from N annochloropsis sp. using soxhlet and ultrasonic. There were two extraction processes that were investigated,Soxhlet-assisted Extraction (SE) and Ultrasonic-assisted Extraction CUE) and both used ethanol solvent...
