Algae, A Good Source of Edible Oil – Unilever
You are at: Oilgae Blog.
Unilever, IBM and other companies said they are constantly investigating green technologies that would help them conserve energy or sell products to customers who embrace efficiencies.
An article in Greentech media says:

Phil Giesler, director of innovation and corporate ventures at Unilever said that Unilever is interested in the developing of edible fuels. Giesler said some of the conventional edible oils, such as palm oils, are being used to make transportation fuels. As a result, forests have been cleared plant more palm trees.
Algae could be a good source of edible oils, though it will likely take 10 or more years to bring it to market.

SEARCH FOR COOPERATION: NEW CLIMATE ECONOMY : the high impact for a mitigation of climate change through the productionof Microalghae for a soustenable food production in agricolture: http://bioscience.oxfordjournals.org/content/60/9/722.full; There is growing recognition that microalgae are among the most productive biological systems for generating biomass for bio-fertilizeds , bio-energy and food , and capturing great mass od CO2 from photosynthesis. Micro-algae’s ability. to improve sequestration of Carbon dioxide.within an efficiencies as high as 90% have been reported in various reports.

–> Future direction of business of microalgae and food applications.
Microalgae are a promising future source for sustainable edible oils. Research and innovation are in development all ower the world to make microalgal oil a cost-effective to produce alternatives for common vegetable edible oils.
Here, Egocreanet will provide information on the latest developments in selecting micro-algae species based on high oil productivity and optimal oil composition for sustainable food applications through exploring future directions for increasing oil production in microalgae, considering both metabolic engineering techniques and cultivation strategies.
