Boeing looks to algae as alternative aviation fuel
By Aimée Turner, Flight Global
Massive cultivation of oil-rich, CO2-absorbing algae pools covering an area equivalent to the size of Austria - or Maryland in the US - could hold the key to eliminating aviation’s contribution to global warming.
Speaking to flightglobal.com, Boeing’s alternative fuel expert Dave Daggett explains that algae has been elevated by the US aircraft manufacturer to front-runner status in terms of its potential to become a viable alternative aviation fuel.

From Seaweed to Fuel
Hadas Kroitoru, April 29, 2007
Israeli company Seambiotic is using a new environmentally friendly technology to create a product from seaweeds.
Seaweed is being brewed by Seambiotic in eight open pools on property belonging to the Israeli Electric Company (IEC). The company's smokestack emissions, otherwise polluting carbon dioxide, are being redirected to "feed" Seambiotic's algae, a product which goes on to feed animals, humans, and can also be used as biofuel.
Seambiotic, founded in 2003, grows marine micro-algae primarily for livestock feed and nutritional supplements for humans. It can also use algae to create biofuel.

Algae-based Oxygen Machine
Came across an interesting blog post on the Chlorophyll Collective (CC)...Just in case you are wondering what on earth CC could be, the post provides the answer:
"How do you turn 6,008.6 million metric tons of CO2 into something essential for human existence?
From the experts at the Chlorophyll Collective, the answer is simple: Take a bunch of algae, submerge it in water, blast it with carbon dioxide and sunlight, and get our essential OXYGEN as a waste(?!) product....
In fact, did you know OVER 70% of the oxygen in the atmosphere is not produced by trees, but by algae? This means our very lives depend on algae for existence!
"
So the folks at CC are trying to make machines that eat the CO2 and produce O2 - in other words, algae-based oxygen machines!

"Playing with Pond Scum" - Algae Fuel in the Red Herring

"Playing with Pond Scum" - Algae Fuel in the April 9, 2007 issue of Red Herring Print Issue
Algae, grown in factories or in ponds, is rich in lipids (read: oil) and could yield 5-to 30-times more oil per acre than palm oil for biofuel production. Only a small group of entrepreuneurs grow commercial algae -- a select group of “alga-nuts,” in the words of one such CEO. VCs don’t think it’s so nutty, though. Algae startups Solazyme, Aurora BioFuels, and GreenFuel Technologies, recently raised tens of millions of funding dollars. Read all about it in Red Herring's Apr issue cover feature, “Playing with Pond Scum,” (available only in the offline print format!)

Pond-Powered Biofuels: Turning Algae into America's New Energy
By Amanda Leigh Haag, March 29, 2007 @ Popular Mechanics
Using a complex photosynthetic process, breakthrough innovators have developed biodiesel and ethanol from an unlikely source that can double its output overnight and just might help give alternative energy the bump it needs: little green goo.
Three years ago, Colorado-based inventor Jim Sears began tinkering with a design to mass-produce biofuel. His feedstock (algae) may have struck soybean farmers as a laughable gamble. But the experiment worked, and today, Sears’ company, Solix Biofuels in Fort Collins, is among several startups betting their futures on the powers of algae, says this article from Popular Mechanics.

Investigative Carte Blanche casts doubt on De Beers Fuel

The popular investigative programme Carte Blanche has cast doubt on the ability of much-feted biofuels startup De Beers Fuel to produce large volumes of biodiesel.
De Beers Fuel of Mookgopong, in Limpopo – which has no connection to diamond mining giant De Beers – has been claiming production of 6 000 litres of biodiesel an hour.

Cultured Micro-Algae Produces Omega-3 Bio-Lipid Oil

Cultured Micro-Algae Produces Omega-3 Bio-Lipid Oil
News Release, Apr 2007
Visit http://www.bio-lipids.com (site under construction) for further information.
Renewable energy technology combines aquaculture with sustainable energy. It is an economically viable, sustainable and successful method of producing mass quantities bio-lipid oil (mainly Omega-3 oils), which brings real life alternative technolgy to the forefront.
Bio-Lipids Technology Group, LLC.
After years of privately funding their own research, the Bio-Lipids Technology Group, LLC has opened their doors to transferring their technology to public and private companies around the world. The company utilizes the strengths of its “advisory board”, made up of the world’s top scientists in the fields of petroleum engineering, chemical engineering, aquaculture, economics and nutrition, to custom develop implementation plans for its clients. Projects are currently being planned throughout the Caribbean, Central and South America.
Micro-algae are capable of producing more bio-lipid oil than any other feedstock or terrestrial crop. Comparing the bio-lipid yield from micro-algae to that of soy and canola , micro-algae produces 200 times more bio-lipid oil (on a per acre per year basis) than soy and 150 times more than canola. In addition, the chemical makeup of the micro-algae (bio-lipid) oil burns cleaner as biodiesel and has more Omega-3 (ALA) and DHA than that of soy or canola oil.
The company takes an “extensive” approach to culturing algae and can even produce organically certified bio-lipid oil. Utilization of existing, but non-operational shrimp ponds, salt flats or fish ponds is the preferred method.
Major markets for the production of bio-lipid oil includes: biodiesel, fish-feed and pharmaceuticals. The Omega-3 bio-lipid oil can directly replace fish meal as the source of protein. This now eliminates the monopoly that fishmeal has on the aquaculture industry. The cost to produce bio-lipid oil is significantly less than the purchase price of fish oils and petroleum based diesel fuels.
Micro-algae production is enhanced when other aquatic species are cultured in conjunction, to provide essential nutrients for the growth of the micro-algae. This approach allows for the continuance of the culture of the existing species, while producing a secondary crop (bio-lipid oil) that may be more valuable than the primary species. Additionally, we can culture the micro-algae without having to culture other aquatic species, it just makes sense to get two crops for the price of one.

Algae May Help Prevent Tsunami, Create New Fuel
MELBOURNE, April 19, 2007 (Bernama) -- Green algae may just hold the answer to preventing future occurrences of hurricanes, tsunamis and other disasters stemming from climate changes if a pilot scheme at Monash University takes off. Of course, this is in addition to the fact that the oil can be used as fuel.
A research team from the university's Department of Chemical Engineering is looking at processes which allow algae to digest carbon dioxide (CO2), whose concentration in the atmosphere is resulting in radical changes in the world's climate.
