Advantages:: when growing algae, they do not harm water resources and the environment, can be grown in polluted waters, grow best in sea water, which is an inexhaustible resource, contain a large amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which allow biodiesel to not lose fuel quality at low temperatures, which is why diesel engines on this fuel can operate in cold conditions, algae do not contain lignin and cellulose, which improves the process of converting raw materials into biofuels, algae can produce up to 300 times more oil per unit area than traditional oilseeds such as rapeseed, palm, soybeans or jatropha. Since the duration of algae cultivation lasts from 1 to 10 days, this allows you to collect several crops in a short time, Disadvantages:: need to be grown under controlled temperature conditions​, requires a considerable amount of land and water​, cold flow issues with algal biofuel​, some researchers using genetic engineering to develop optimal algae strains​, requires phosphorus as a fertilizer which is becoming scarce ​, fertilizer production is carbon dependent​,
