City - Rockhampton Country - Australia About - Like everyone else here, I am seeking the holy grail - algal-oil converted to fuel in a cost competitive manner. The technology for fuel conversion has been available for over 40 years but the will to do it hasn't caught up. As an investor I am very interested to hear from anyone who can produce a litre of biodiesel for under 20 cents. |

- what could be approx cost of production of biodiesel/gallon from Algae by Hitesh2012 - 1 day ago
- The first step would be to isolate a good strain or engineering one. Then optimize conditions for enhanced algae production and take it from there.Production of algaefuel is sure a technology for the future.

Relating to the VPBR - if anyone is interested I will donate a VPBR for a Auto rickshaw and would work with who ever get it to make it work - http://www.wateralchemy.co.nz/apps/photos/photo?photoid=91653302
And then you have a easy access to algae mass and they are mobile - you could possibly feed a digester and with other organic mass, make enough bio-gas to run you vehicles - this is one of my dreams - "ye who make the mass/energy get ye reward" ??
Greetings, I was just reviewing a old post relating to Home size mass production of algae for fuel - and it occurred to me that the VPBR could assist in the aggregation of the algae mass, the vilage could have a mutible of the VPBR mounted on the Auto Rickshaws/busses/truck and there they get CO2 !!
