Lipids can be extracted from a microbial biomass that constitutes at least 20% lipids by weight and has a moisture content of less than 4% by weight by applying pressure to the biomass so as to release lipids therefrom, thereby leaving a biomass of reduced lipid content; and collecting the lipids.

A microorganism oil composition, in particular of microalgae, enriched with polyunsaturated fatty acids, characterised in that it has a saturated fatty acid content of less than or equal to 40 mg/g of composition, an omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid content greater than or equal to 500 mg/g of composition, and in that it includes, with respect to the total quantity of monoglycerides, diglycerides, triglycerides and fatty acid ethyl esters, a quantity of triglycerides below 70%, a quantity of diglycerides of between 10 and 35%, and a quantity of monoglycerides of between 1 and 5%.

A method may include: providing bio waste stream wherein the bio waste stream comprises at least one bio waste selected from the group consisting of palm oil mill effluent, soapstock, and combinations thereof; introducing the bio waste effluent stream into a fluidized catalytic cracking unit; contacting the bio waste with a catalyst in the fluidized catalytic cacking unit; and cracking at least a portion of the bio waste stream to form cracked products that comprise a cracked product stream.

The present disclosure provides compounds useful as ionizable cationic lipids. The ionizable cationic lipids are useful for preparing lipid nanoparticles for the delivery of therapeutic nucleic acids to cells. Cationic ionizable lipids were engineered with improved stability to oxidative degradation while in storage.

The present invention relates to processes for producing industrial products such as hydrocarbon products from non-polar lipids in a vegetative plant part. Preferred industrial products include alkyl esters which may be blended with petroleum based fuels.

PROBLEM To provide a composition comprising highly enriched PUFA or its alkyl esters while containing fatty acid esters of 3-MCPD at adequately low concentrations and to provide an efficient method for producing the composition.

MEANS FOR SOLVING A composition that contains fatty acids or fatty acid alkyl esters as its major component, the composition containing highly unsaturated fatty acid or alkyl ester thereof, wherein the proportion of the highly unsaturated fatty acid in the constituent fatty acids of the composition is 50 area % or more and wherein the concentration of 3-MCPD as found upon analyzing the composition by American Oil Chemists' Society official method Cd 29b-13 assay A is less than 1.80 ppm.

The presently claimed invention relates to a process for the production and purification of sterols from oil distillates or oil distillation residues, in particular from the latter. Specifically, the presently claimed invention relates to a process for obtaining sterols in a pure form with reduced impurity and improved color.
