Abstract
This chapter reviews the recent development of extraction techniques, procedures and solvents for lipids from microorganisms. The modern innovative and intensified extraction techniques, alternative solvents and original procedures (ultrasound, microwave, supercritical fluid extraction, biobased-solvent, mechanical extraction, enzyme-assisted extraction, Instant controlled pressure drop, pulse electric field) are summarized in terms of their principles, processes, applications, benefits and disadvantages.
