My understanding is that algae grown in saltwater is insufficient for biofuel because the salt cannot be separated from the extracted lipids. How true is this in reality?
Said another way, what kinds of technological breakthroughs would we need to have to allow for the use of saltwater in biofuel production? Thanks!

Biogasoline production processes?
Much information is available online about ethanol and other alcohols that can be produced via fermentation. In addition, there are many resources that talk about transesterification for the conversion of biolipids into biodiesel.
That said, I haven't found a ton of information about biogasoline. What exactly is the process, or what are the candidate processes, that can be leveraged to produce hydrocarbons in the gasoline range? Is there a process that takes biolipids as the main ingredient?
And what, if any, differences exist between gasoline from a traditional refinery and biogasoline?
