These test studies makes possible the use of VG&#8217;s proprietary technology in the large-scale commercial production of biofuels as well as high-value oils used in cosmetics, food and nutraceuticals, among other products.<\/p>\n<p>VG Energy\u2019s CEO Haid Kaledjian is of the opinion that these positive results make them proceed to the next phase of the study. BioProcess Algae initially performed a Feasibility Assessment Study to establish baseline performance of VG&#8217;s technology, with algal strains provided by VG and additional strains from BioProcess Algae. The study verifies the bench-level results of VG Energy\u2019s technology and the next step will be a Dosage Response Study followed by testing at industrial-scale studies. According to Dr. M. Karen Newell Rogers, VG Energy&#8217;s head of scientific research, the study will determine the optimal dosage for the highest lipid outcome in the plant strains selected and is expected to be completed within a month. The next update on this project will be upon completion of the Industrial Scale Demonstration.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/vg-energys-lipid-enhancement-technology-independently-confirmed-in-first-phase-of-testing-for-potential-commercial-production-of-biofuels-123447324.html\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VG Energy\u2019s Lipid Enhancement Technology receives independent confirmation from BioProcess Algae, LLC, whose initial laboratory studies have verified the increase in yields of algae oils following treatment with VG Energy&#8217;s Metabolic Disruption Technology (MDT) additives.
