New flocculants for micro-algae Harvest for Bio-diesel

Nanoforce, Inc. Press Release

I'm providing only a small excerpt of the PR that is of relevance to this blog.

1. Nanoforce, Inc., a developer of nano-materials, new refining processes, and equipment for use in the alternative and conventional energy sectors announces the successful demonstration of STEEL SILK(tm) at the NanoTX '06 Conference in Dallas, Texas last week.
2. Licensing and co-development opportunities included NNFC's proprietary Nano-Cat(tm) petroleum catalyst line, the Poly-Web line of flocculants used to harvest micro-algae for bio-diesel, and Steel Silk, a self-assembling nano-material and one of the toughest fibers ever demonstrated worldwide.
3. Refinery Science Corp., a subsidiary of Nanoforce, is a material science-based petroleum technology business. The company intends to apply the benefits of its latest developments in material science and nanotechnology to provide solutions to issues associated with the production and transportation of extra heavy crude, and increase profits from refining heavy crude and residual bottoms. The Company's unique nano-materials may enable companies to profitably refine low quality crude oil, such as that from shale and oil sands that are difficult and expensive to process.

Not exactly a very relevant post, except for the flocculants for harvesting the microalgae part...
