Zusammenfassung:	The present invention generally relates to the production of biofuels and, in particular, to a process for simultaneous saccharification and fermentation using a microalgae substrate. According to one aspect of the present invention, a process is provided in which the temperature and pH of a broth mixture are adjusted to slow the rate of glucose conversion and to match the glucose metabolizing rate of the microalgae.
