Abstract
Liquid fuel in the form of a mixture of hydrocarbons has been produced from a renewable form of biomass, the green microalga Dunaliella, which is distributed in oceans and salt lakes throughout the world. The product is a high-quality oil low in sulfur and nitrogen and is obtained by pyrolysis of a suspension of the algal cells. Feasibility studies have determined that the total cost of oil produced from Dunaliella is $21.6 per barrel of crude oil. Allowing for a 20% profit on the investment, the price of a barrel of oil would be $26 (Zaidman, School of Applied Chemistry, The Hebrew University of Jersualem)

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":"
