Objective Overview & Update on Status of Commercial Algal Biofuels Production shared in “Algal Bioenergy Roundtable” session at 2nd AlgaeWorld Asia.

With Commercial Algal Biofuels production projected to be anywhere between 10-15 years away, the pressure intensifies on the Algal Biofuels industry to stay relevant and continue their research and efforts.

2nd Algae World Asia also features specific sessions that explore the different pathways to Algal Biofuels production. On the agenda:

GROWING, HARVESTING, DEWATERING & EXTRACTION: GETTING THE WHOLE PROCESS RIGHT

  • For efficient and cost effective production of algal biofuels, the whole process must be optimised and all steps are interrelated
  • The nature of the algae species dictates the harvesting and dewatering process which can be used
  • As the water must be recycled the harvesting options are limited
  • The oil extraction process will affect the degree of dewatering required
