Title:
MICRO-ALGA BELONGING TO GENUS NAVICULA, PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF OIL BY CULTURE OF THE MICRO-ALGA, AND OIL COLLECTED FROM THE MICRO-ALGA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/116611
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed are: a micro-alga highly capable of producing an aliphatic hydrocarbon having 16 to 26 carbon atoms; a process for producing an oil, which comprises a step of culturing the micro-alga; an oil collected from the micro-alga; a fuel produced from the micro-alga; and a method for fixing carbon dioxide, which comprises a step of culturing the micro-alga. Specifically disclosed is a micro-alga which is capable of producing an aliphatic hydrocarbon having 16 to 26 carbon atoms and belongs to the genus Navicula. More specifically disclosed is a micro-alga, Navicula oiliticus, strain JPCC DA0580 (FERM BP-11201).
