Algae oil to be refined by local company<\/strong> – By Stella Davis – from Current Argus, Jan 24, 2007<\/p>\n

Excerpts
1. A Carlsbad family with roots steeped in Eddy County and the agriculture industry is seeking $1.4 million in WIPP acceleration funds to build a $2.8 million biodiesel plant in Carlsbad that will refine oil from algae and other feedstock.
2. Th co plans to partner with Center of Excellence for Hazardous Materials Management (CEHMM) to produce the biodiesel fuel.
3. The co considers that it is critical for the algae oil and plant to be parallel. If they don’t have a plant in Carlsbad, then they would have to take the algae oil to another plant
4. Co will process soy and canola seed until they are ready for the algae oil to go to the plant.
5. The director of the CEHMM program says that the success of their oil from algae program is “in the feeding of algae”
6. The CEHMM director sees Carlsbad as a prime spot for algae production and sees the possibility of the creation of a multi-billion dollar industry, because, “We use non-arable land and brine water to produce algae as an abundant source of oil that does not compete with food,” he said. “We are sitting on an ocean of brine”<\/p>\n

Organizations & personalities mentioned: Ronnie Walterscheid, his wife, Sheila; his brother Phillip and his wife, Melissa; daughter Katie Aves and her husband, Richard and patriarch of the family Henry; Cetane Energy; Doug Lynn, CEHMM interim director; U.S Department of Energy<\/p>\n

Nature gave us<\/a> oil from algae; perhaps we should try<\/a> Nature’s way again<\/span><\/b><\/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

The objective of Oilgae is to facilitate exploration of oil production from algae as well as exploration of other alternative energy avenues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
