Résumé
Rhodosporidium toruloides, an oleaginous yeast, is a potential feedstock for biodiesel production due to its ability to utilize lignocellulosic biomass-derived hydrolysate with a considerably high lipid titer of 50–70 % w/w. Hence, for the first-time environmental assessment of large-scale R. toruloides-based biodiesel production from wood hydrolysate and crude glycerol was conducted. The global warming potential was observed to be 0.67 kg CO2 eq./MJ along with terrestrial ecotoxicity of 1.37 kg 1,4-DCB eq./MJ and fossil depletion of 0.13 kg oil eq./MJ. The highest impacts for global warming (∼45 %) and fossil depletion (∼37 %) are attributed to the use of chloroform for lipid extraction while fuel consumption for transportation contributed more than 50 % to terrestrial ecotoxicity. Further, sensitivity analysis revealed that maximizing biodiesel yield by increasing lipid yield and solid loading could contribute to reduced environmental impacts. In nutshell, this investigation reveals that environmental impact varies with the type of chemical utilized.
