Abstract: Cosmarium sp is unicellular microalga which was grown in bold basal medium with the controlled condition and investigated biochemical characterizations for biodiesel production and evaluated standardization of ethanol production. Once microalgae were reaches the proper growth stage total lipid was analyzed and these lipids were used for the production of biodiesel by transesterification process using Calcium oxide (0.66%) as a catalyst. Bioethanol production was done by using the defatted residues of Cosmarium sp. with Saccharomyces cerevisiae (10%). In view of the above-mentioned facts, the present study has been designed to enhance the production of biodiesel and bioethanol.
