NOVELTY - Selectively removing products from an algal biomass comprising intact algal cells, comprises: combining algal biomass and first solvent set to form first extraction mixture having first solid and first liquid phases; separating first liquid phase; combining first extraction solid phase and second solvent set to form second extraction mixture having second solid and second liquid phases; separating second liquid phase; combining second extraction solid phase and third solvent set to form third extraction mixture having third solid and third liquid phases; and separating third liquid phase.    USE - The method is useful for selectively removing products from an algal biomass comprising intact algal cells, where the products comprise proteins (all claimed) and oils (polar and neutral lipids), which are useful for producing biofuels.    ADVANTAGE - The method: is flexible and highly customizable; utilizes the cells comprising the algal biomass that are not dried or disrupted, and avoids the use of large amounts of energy required to dry and disrupt the cells, thus reducing the capital and operating costs; provides the products with high yield and purity than those obtained by conventional extractions; and utilizes the residual ethanol in the oil fraction for trans-esterification, thus reducing the heat load on the biomass drying operation.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Selectively removing products from an algal biomass comprising substantially intact algal cells, comprises: combining an algal biomass and a first solvent set to generate a first extraction mixture including a first solid phase and a first liquid phase; separating at least a portion of the first liquid phase from the first solid phase; combining the first extraction solid phase and a second solvent set to generate a second extraction mixture including a second solid phase and a second liquid phase, where the second extraction mixture is less polar than the first extraction mixture; separating at least a portion of the second liquid phase from the second solid phase; combining the second extraction solid phase and a third solvent set to generate a third extraction mixture including a third solid phase and a third liquid phase, where the third extraction mixture is less polar than the second extraction mixture; and separating at least a portion of the third liquid phase from the third solid phase.
