• Today’s Strategy

• Lipids and biomass are being separated.

   

   

• But are they utilized most efficiently?
• Algae success is dependent on that efficiency.
• What is the most efficient modality?

• Tomorrow’s Strategy

• Use whole biomass to create most cost-effective products.

   

   

• Use extracted oil for high-value products.
• Strategy must encompass the full spectrum

•
