Extracting lipids from microalgal biomass presents significant potential as a cost-effective approach for clean energy generation. This can be achieved through the chemical conversion of lipids to produce fatty acid methyl esters via transesterification. The extraction mainly involves free fatty acids, phospholipids, and triglycerides, and requires less energy, making it an attractive option for satisfying the growing demand for fossil-derived energies. Several approaches have been explored for sustainable bioenergy production from microalgal species via catalytic, non-catalytic, and enzymatic transesterification. This review discusses recent insights into microalgal lipid extraction via solvent, Soxhlet, Bligh and Dyer’s, supercritical CO2, and ionic liquids solvent methods and lipid conversion by transesterification and homo/heterogeneous acid/base catalyzed, enzymatic, non-catalytic, and mechanically/chemically catalyzed in-situ techniques towards algal bioenergy production. Technical advances in both extraction and conversion are necessary for the commercialization of renewable energy sources.
