OriginOil Signs Deal with US DOE's Idaho National Laboratory (INL)

You are at: Oilgae Blog.

OriginOil Inc. announced that it has signed a Cooperative Agreement with The United States Department of Energy's Idaho National Laboratory (INL). The multi-phase research program will focus on validation and commercial scaling of the company's technology in the production of algae-based fuels.

The initial phase, which starts immediately, will focus on the collaborative development of an energy balance model for photobioreactor-based algae systems. OriginOil expects to use this model in the optimization of its algae-to-oil technology as early as the 1st Quarter of 2009. Subsequent phases will center on validation of the OriginOil processes and piloting specific commercial applications.
