City - Urbana, IL Country - United States Role - Student About - I am a candidate for the Professional Science Masters Program in Bioenergy at UIUC; a program that has dual concentrations on science and business in both development and complex bioenergy systems. I am interested in algae industry for a while; at the meantime, I have done couple experiments on micor- and macro- algae in order to convert it into biofeuls. I expect myself entering into algae industry in the future since it is a promising and potential feedstock in fuel and non-fuel applications. I am willing to share the information with everything, and hoping to make friends with those are also interested in algae industry. |

- Dear Members of Oilgae, I am Rishibha Dixit pursuing Ph.D and in my Ph.D. research work i need some standard protocols for extraction of lipid from microalgae, and identification of lipids. I would be highly obliged if anyone could provide me the standard protocols for extraction of lipid. Thank yo by RishibhaDixit - 18 hours ago
- I think there needs to be online interaction. If you post a question or say something some should be able to answer or comment on it by Gardenfuel1 - 3 weeks ago
- Some one speek to me am hungry for your knowledge, advice and or comments. One reseacher I met said that the energy expended in producing a litre of algal fuel is not worth the expense incured! That one would rather use fossil fuel!!!!!!!!!!!! by Gardenfuel1 - 1 month ago
- Am glad finally am in the think tank that would add value to me. Am really into bio fuels especially biodiesel but the feed stock to this industry is a real challenge and when I came across the algal idea I reluxed not knowing that what lay ahead was a very big challenge! by Gardenfuel1 - 1 month ago
