Scientists from US have discovered a way to make algae better oil producers without sacrificing growth. They identified a mutation in the green alga Chlamydomonas which substantially removes a constraint that is widely observed in micro-algae where the highest yields of oil can only be obtained from starving cultures. They found that there was a […]

The US-DOE has announced that, for an initiative entitled Joint Clean Energy Research and Development Center (JCERDC), which aims at the development of alternative energy throughout  South Asia, the University of Florida and the Indian government will enter into a research collaboration to work on a biofuel project. The project will focus on the benefits of biofuels […]

Aquaflow Bionomic Corporation, with the goal of building a 1000 tonnes per day biorefinery, will seek millions of dollars of funding from global investors. Earlier the company had planned to build a 100 tonnes per day biofuel plant to test the economics of producing a “drop-in” fuel from algae that could be used in existing combustion […]

As there is a growing concern for environmental, many countries are actively supporting the projects on renewable energy. The United States of America is no exception. Algae biofuels are getting considerable recognition in the US these days. No wonder the US president supports algae based biofuels as an alternative to the conventional fossil fuels. Interestingly […]

Algae fuel experiment of two students is chosen to be carried out aboard the space shuttle Atlantis. Kyle Chapo and Isaac Wells, two students from the Nebraska-based Lincoln Zoo School, a science focus program, will carry out experiments on algae oil production, simultaneously astronauts will be doing the same aboard Atlantis. The experiment was chosen […]
