NMSU studies special algae for biodiesel production<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jan 09, 2007, Ruidoso News<\/p>\n

1. The NMSU science center is serving as the location of algae fuel research led by the Center of Excellence for Hazardous Materials Management, based in Carlsbad.
2. NMSU is helping on two fronts – providing technical expertise through the Artesia Science Center and having NMSU College of Engineering Dean Steve Castillo serve on the CEHMM Board of Directors and Technical Advisory Council.
3. The project is investigating the best ways to grow and harvest certain species of algae, which produce a much higher level of oil than more traditional crops like soybeans or canola.
4. CEHMM is also collaborating with the Artesia Science Center on a project focused on the potential of growing a cold-season canola crop to generate oil for biodiesel production.”
5. The tremendous reserves of brackish water, mild climate and abundant sunshine in New Mexico make good conditions for algae farmers.
6. The next step in the algae research is to establish a larger demonstration pond at the Artesia center, about one-quarter of an acre in size. Construction of the pond should be complete in March 2007.
7. A much larger demonstration project to be started in 2008 eventually will cover about 100 acres, Lynn said.<\/p>\n

About Oilgae – Oilgae – Oil & Biodiesel from Algae<\/a><\/b> has a focus on biodiesel production from algae while also discussing alternative energy in general. Algae present an exciting possibility as a feedstock for biodiesel, and when you realise that oil was originally formed from algae – among other related plants – you think “Hey! Why not oil again from algae!”<\/p>\n

To facilitate exploration of oil production from algae as well as exploration of other alternative energy avenues, Oilgae provides web links, directory, and related resources for algae-based biofuels \/ biodiesel along with inputs on new inventions, discoveries & breakthroughs in other alternative energy domains such as solar, wind, nuclear, hydro, geothermal, hydrogen & fuel cells, gravitational, geothemal, human-powered, ocean & wave \/ tidal energy. We hope Oilgae proves to be useful as a research information & inputs resources, and as a source of news & info for business & trade of algal oil, algal fuels & new alternative energy products – specially with regard to new feedstock \/ feedstocks, production processes and uses, and market info such as price \/ prices, data & statistics<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
