Abstrakt: Biocomponents (such as lipids) accumulate in oleaginous microorganisms and could be used for renewable energy production. Oleaginous microbes are characterized by their ability to accumulate high levels of lipids, which can be converted into biodiesel. The oleaginous microbes (including microalgae, bacteria, yeast, and fungi) can utilize diverse substrates. Thus, in this study, commercially viable oleaginous microorganisms are comparatively summarized for their growth conditions, substrate utilization, and applications in biotechnological processes. Lipid content is species-dependent, as are culture conditions (such as temperature, pH, nutrients, and culture time) and substrates. Lipid production can be increased by selecting suitable microorganisms and substrates, optimizing environmental conditions, and using genetic engineering techniques. In addition, the emphasis on downstream processes (including harvesting, cell disruption, lipid extraction, and transesterification) highlights their critical role in enhancing cost-effectiveness. Oleaginous microorganisms are potential candidates for lipid biosynthesis and could play a key role in meeting the energy needs of the world in the future.
