Phycal harvests oil from algae without killing it!

You are at: Oilgae Blog.

The algae fuel company Phycal is trying to harvest oil from algae without killing the algae. Instead, Phycal bathes the algae in solvents which can suck out the oil. Some strains of algae can go through the process four times or more.
That's interesting.
