Abstract

This research was a preliminary research that aimed to determine the number of lipid from microalgae Botryococcus braunii through the extraction process and to find out the potentiality of microalgae to be converted into biodiesel. In this research used n-hexane as solvent, then it was conducted a literature study for lipid extraction from Botryococcus braunii with soxhlet method as companion data result. In this research, lipid extraction was performed on a laboratory scale using 175 ml n-hexane. Microalgae Botryococcus braunii were cultivated for 10 days preceding the process of drying and it was followed by the process of lipid extraction with soxhlet. The results of this study showed that the extraction with soxhlet method had the percentage of lipid yield that was 24% with 45 cycles. The number of lipid yields obtained was affected by the number of solvent cycles during the extraction process. The extraction process run optimally since the number of solvent cycles increased more and more until there was no more lipids extract that could be dissolved by the solvent. Therefore, the best method of extraction was the soxhlet method because it had a dilution principle that occurred repeatedly
