| Updated Comprehensive Oilgae Report The Comprehensive Oilgae Report is the most detailed intelligence report for the algae fuel industry. Compiled by a team of researchers over a two year period, it comprises the collective intelligence of over 100 experts, scientists and investors belonging to the algae fuel sector. The report has been updated in November and now comprises the latest data and insights that will be invaluable for those keen on exploring the algae fuel opportunities. The report also comes with free additional research support from the Oilgae team and access to the subsequent three updates at no additional cost.

Latest Updates Read the latest from the Oilgae Blog and from news updates around the world on what transpired in the algae energy world Innova Tech Develops a Algae Harvesting Technology- Nova Filter Algae fuels commercialization faces challenges in every part of the value chain. Starting from strain selection to product extraction there are biological and engineering breakthroughs which are required to make algae fuels a reality. With respect to harvesting, the main issue is the energy required to remove the algae cells from the liquid media. A company by name Innova Tech have brought about a new method to efficiently separates algae particles from the liquid medium.

These radioactive atoms get permanently incorporated into the DNA of every child's body and brain cells as they grow up, and will cause tens of billions of genetic damage events in every person over their lifetime. This genetic damage may be an important factor in cancer and the aging process. But the carbon dioxide obtained from burning fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas at power plants, or from limestone in cement manufacturing, is virtually free of radiocarbon. It can be used to grow algae for making safer, less radioactive foods.

The company hopes to begin production by 2012. The plant will use an enclosed algae production method, enabling lower water and land consumption, said Roger Stroud, Algae.tec's executive chairman.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to authorize the expenditure of up to $18 million in cost-shared federal funding to support the final design, construction, and start-up of a pilot-scale Direct to Ethanol® integrated biorefinery (hereafter referred to as biorefinery or proposed project).

US and EU-based algae producers and licensors of technology are increasingly looking to the Emerging Markets in Latin America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East for faster economic growth, increasing market demand, and more supportive government and regulatory climates for accelerated commercial growth. This follows a key trend by Shell and BP investing $12 and $8 billion respectively in sugar-based conglomerates in Brazil to produce ethanol, bio-butanol, drop-in fuels, and bio-based chemical products.
