> Directory:Biodiesel from Algae Oil > Making Algae Biodiesel at Home - Downloadable 650-page book provides detailed instructions on how to sustainably produce clean oil from algae -- in your back yard -- enough to supply your transportation and home power needs. This is not a simple, afternoon venture, but a serious, long-term commitment.
Directory:Gardening / Directory:Alternative Fuels > Directory:Biofuels > Directory:Algae for Oil > Is Algae the DIY Answer to Fuel & Food Crisis? - Aaron Baum of the Algae Lab explains why people growing algae at home for fuel and food can help the environment and their health. He's creating an international network of people growing all kinds of algae in their homes in an open source way. One of the low-cost materials is household urine. (Shareable Sept. 7, 2010)
Origin Oil Announces Successful Automation of its Helix BioReactor - The design of the Helix BioReactor™ utilizes low-energy lights arranged in a helix pattern and a rotating vertical shaft design, which allows algae culture to replicate exponentially within a smaller installation footprint. Automation of this system is a key step towards low-cost, efficient, continuous algae production. (Renewable Wire Dec. 16, 2008)
Latest: Directory:Algae for Oil >Directory:Valcent Products Vertigro - Valcent has developed a high density vertical bio-reactor for the mass production of oil bearing algae while removing large quantities of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. This new bio-reactor is tailored to grow a species of algae that yields a large volume of high grade vegetable oil, suitable for blending with diesel to create a bio-diesel fuel. (PESWiki Sept 29, 2008) Directory:Oil > Directory:Non-Fossil Oil > Directory:Algae for Oil > Making Oil in Minutes, Not Millennia - Chemical engineers at the University of Michigan are applying heat and pressure on microalgae, exploring a method to create affordable biofuel that could replace fossil fuels. They also hope to use the byproducts of bio-oil production as feedstock for more biofuel, combining hydrothermal, catalytic and biological approaches. (Wired Apr. 30, 2010)Turning algae into ethanol, and gold - Algenol Biofuels licensed deal for an $850 million project with a way to inexpensively bring third-generation biofuels to industrial scale with a seawater-based process that can generate up to a billion gallons of algal ethanol per year from a facility in Mexico. (CleanTech June 11, 2008)
Biotech pros press algae into biodiesel production - Aurora Biofuel, started by University of California at Berkeley students, has a process that it says can create biodiesel at yields that are 125 times higher and have 50 percent lower costs than today's production methods.
Sapphire Energy turns algae into 'green crude' for fuel - Sapphire Energy uses algae, sunlight, carbon dioxide and non-potable water to make "green crude" that it contends is chemically equivalent to the light, sweet crude oil. They call it "the world's first renewable gasoline". (Los Angeles Times May 29, 2008)
Circle Biodiesel & Ethanol Corporation: Clean energy company specializing in renewable energy and manufacturing and consulting for algae biodiesel and algae biofuel processors for algae oil, biodiesel processors, jatropha oil, bioethanol, ethanol stills and methane digesters for the production of methane biogas.

Latest: Directory:Electromagnetic / Current events > Events:Archive:2013 > Events:Bedini Conferences > Events:2013:June 28-30:John Bedini - Peter Lindemann 2013 Science & Technology Conference - Featured presenter: Eric Dollard on 'Alternating Electric Waves', in addition to the regulars: Bedini, Lindemann, Jeanne Manning, Aaron Murakami, Paul Babcock, Chuck Hupp, Jim Murray. "If you have ever wondered whether advanced energy inventions really exist, then this is the Conference you have always wanted to attend!" (PESWiki May 10, 2010) Latest: Directory:Alternative Fuels > Directory:Biofuel > Directory:Algae > Directory:OriginOil > OriginOil announces first customer for oil-from-algae technology - Company's technology uses algae to turn CO2 from power plants into fuel, vegetable oil, plastic and hundreds of other useful products, via sound waves and electric pulses that enable the oil to separate out in solution. Their fist customer will be MBD Energy of Australia. (PESN May 16, 2010) (Comment)Congress:Top 100 Technologies -- RD: Directory:OriginOil > OriginOil announces breakthrough process for live algae oil extraction - OriginOil, Inc. announced that it has succeeded in extracting algae oil on a continuous basis without cell sacrifice. This new ‘milking’ process will join the company’s Cascading Production™ technique to create a combined cycle promising new efficiencies. (BusinessWire July 27, 2009)
Fuel From Pond Scum - Update - PGE and renewable energy developer Columbia Energy Partners announced that they had begun a pilot project for the algae venture at the utility's Boardman facility in Morrow County, OR. (Newshoggers Sept. 26, 2008)
Maui to Get Algae Facility for Biodiesel - Recognizing the potential for algae as an energy crop, a Hawaiian conglomerate has come together to pursue the joint development of a commercial-scale microalgae facility on Maui to produce lipid oil for conversion to biodiesel and other products, such as animal feed. (CleanTechnica July 15, 2008)
Scum Power - Today, the cheapest algae production costs $5,000 per ton, says F. Blaine Metting, a researcher at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, a U.S. Department of Energy facility in Richland, Wash. Still, he believes that if the crude oil stays at its current lofty price, algae-based oil could be competitively priced in five years if engineers and scientists can improve algae productivity per acre.
