Biofuel Production Using Microalgae
Detailed Technology Description
ApplicationThis invention is a biological harvesting system, designedto reduce the cost of harvesting algae. Recent discoveries show that microalgaehas high potential as a source of biofuel, but the cost of harvesting algae haslimited the utility of these discoveries. We have a strategy to harvest microalgaeusing clams and mussels which, after feeding on microalgae, convert algallipids in to their biomass or excrete algae in the pseudofeces. Harvesting thebiomass and pseudofeces is relatively simple and vastly less costly thanharvesting undigested microalgae.
