Peterborough Renewable Energy Ltd Use Algae to Tap Up CO2 from Flue Gases
You are at: Oilgae Blog.
The company has been invited to submit a full proposal to the European Commission’s Research Dictorate by May 28, 2009, with the hope of attracting up to £2.5 million R&D funding.
The Algae Technology and Carbon Capture project could initially capture 10-20% of the energy-from-waste plant’s emissions, with the algae making use of nutrients from the plant’s potash to produce between 5,000 and 10,000 tonnes of biomass fuel a year.
The firm’s managing director Chris Williams told New Energy Focus yesterday that ultimately, the project could develop technology capable of capturing higher proportions of emissions, producing enough biomass fuel for an entire dedicated biomass power station.
