Thinning of <i>Botryococcus braunii</i> Colony Sheath by Pretreatment Enhances Solvent-Based Hydrocarbon Recovery

<i>Botryococcus braunii</i> is a green microalga that is attracting attention as an alternative aviation fuel owing to its hydrocarbon production. In this study, we investigated two approaches to reducing the energy required by pretreatment for hydrocarbon recovery by solvent extraction....
