Microalga Botryococcus terribilis TEPMO-26 strain, method for producing hydrocarbon, dried algae and algae residue

摘要

A Botryococcus strain exhibiting a high calorific value, a method for producing a hydrocarbon using this strain, a dried alga body of this strain, an alga body residue obtained after extracting a hydrocarbon from this strain, and other microalgae There is provided a method for producing a hydrocarbon using the. SOLUTION: [1] Microalga Botryococcus terribilis TEPMO-26 strain. [2] A method for producing a hydrocarbon, which comprises a step of culturing the microalgae. [3] A culturing step of culturing the microalgae in a culture solution, a holding step of holding the microalgae cultivated in the culturing step in a culture solution more alkaline than the pH of the culture solution, and a holding step A method for producing a hydrocarbon, comprising a recovery step of recovering algae from the culture solution later. [4] The method for producing a hydrocarbon according to [3] above, wherein the microalgae is the TEPMO-26 strain. [5] A dried algal body obtained by drying the microalgae of [1] above. [6] An algal residue obtained after extracting at least a part of hydrocarbons from the microalgae of [1] above. [Selection diagram] None
