Algae are potential feedstocks that can be used for the production
of biofuels and thus providing solution for the challenges of
energy crisis and environmental greenhouse gasses. Several
companies and government agencies are funding efforts to reduce
capital and operating costs and make algae fuel production
commercially viable.Harvested algae, like fossil fuel, releases CO2
when burnt but unlike fossil fuel the CO2 is taken out of the
atmosphere by the growing of algae and other biofuel sources, and
the world food crisis, have ignited interest in algaculture
(farming algae) for making vegetable oil, biodiesel, bioethanol,
biogasoline, biomethanol, biobutanol and other biofuels, using land
that is not suitable for agriculture.The present study was aimed to
collect algal samples from various localities in Lahore,
identification, optimization of culture conditions and comparison
of oil production of different algal species.
This work was carried out with the objective to find out a solution
to cope with the problem of soil salinity; a major constraint to
crop production. This work is of great importance in explaining new
ways to improve salt tolerance of sugarcane. We are optimistic that
this can be also useful for other plants as well. The work not only
describes the improvement of salinity tolerance but also throws
light on the relationship of salinity tolerance with antioxidant
enzyme activities. To conclude we would like to say that it is only
a minute cintribution to the vast sea of knowledge having a lot of
hard work and originality behind it.
