    Abstract
    Renewable, carbon neutral, economically viable alternative fuels are urgently needed to turn away the consequences of climate change Photosynthetic capability of microalgae with respect to CO<sub>2</sub> fixation at various CO<sub>2</sub> partial pressures generated by CO<sub>2</sub> generating buffer (KHCO<sub>3</sub>/K<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub>), increases in biodiesel precursors using IR-CO<sub>2</sub> sensor and modern LED lights-based modern two tier flask photobioreactor has been studied Chlorella vulgaris and Scenesdesmus obliquus were found to produce 37.11% and 32.23% of palmitic acid (C16:0) and 30.88% and 39.73% of octadecenoic acid (C18:1) of total fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) respectively at 7.5% of CO<sub>2</sub> partial pressure, under the optimal values for growth Carbon dioxide fixation rate, efficiency of conversion of biomass to calorific value and biodiesel precursors were also estimated.
