Issue 7 of Green Chemistry is now available to read online.
The front cover this month features work by Johannes A. Lercher and co-workers from Garching, Germany. In their work they look at catalytic routes for the conversion of microalgae oil to green hydrocarbons. Microalgae are high potential raw biomass material for triglyceride feedstock due to their high oil content and rapid growth rate, and also because algae cultivation does not compete with edible food on arable land.
