If you are interested I can get you a N. D. N. C. filled out with you and we can go from there. I have the technology operating and can process up to 2,500 gallons per minute on a single processor. I am currently planing now to install algae system in South Australia at our private technology project and training center. Jeff I have your solution for disrupting the cells of the algae.

They have a continuous or batch system that is followed by algae cell wall disruption for algal oil removal. Process can be done on a batch or continuos basis for any volume of algae grown.They can be reached at fuelalternatives@sbcglobal.net One of the most efficient high lipid algae solid separation from water processes is offered by Water & Oil Technologies, Inc.

Instead of fermenting for ethanol after the oil extraction consider fermentation before oil extraction. It would seem that the process of fermenting the microalgae before the extraction of the oil may break down the cell walls which would free the oil. The stock and water could then be removed through filtering, settling, centrifuge, or something. The ethanol could be distilled out leaving the oil ready for biodiesel conversion. I read somewhere that ethanol could be used in place of methanol and this process would/could provide the source of the ethanol.<br /><br />fcvan I had a thought that maybe brighter minds than mine could consider (or already have.)
