GeoBio Energy, Inc. Completing 2 Algae-to-Energy Pilot Projects

A new public company, GeoBio Energy, Inc., is putting the finishing touches on two algae-to-energy pilot projects. Each is designed to yield volumes of algae-derived biofuel that can be sold at a profit.
The first GeoBio Energy project would locate an algae-to-energy facility at a coal-fired utility power plant. Carbon dioxide from power plant exhaust gases would be sent to the algae facility to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
The second project would place algae-to-energy facilities at a gas and oil drilling site. The goal of that project would be water reclamation, showing how brackish water used in drilling can nourish algae for biofuel and how algae can improve the water quality for use in agriculture by removing salts and minerals it uses to grow.
