Development of a Commercially Viable Algae Biofuels Process

AIChE Webinar
Live Wednesday, May 8, 2013, 2:00pm-3:00pm EDT
Benjamin Saydah

This presentation will provide an overview of a process to produce algae bio-crude from algae grown in open ponds using non-potable water and non-arable soil.

From Wet Algae to Liquid Fuels

Mar 20, 2013
Phillip Savage

The presentation provides some general background on biofuels and on the use of algae as a biomass source for making liquid fuels. The presentation focuses on R&D efforts related to processing algae in its wet state, which eliminates an energy intensive drying step.
