All About Algae: The Digest’s 2019 Multi-Slide Guide to Algal Biomass Yield Improvements

Global Algae Innovations is working on a trifecta of goals: 1) to develop improved strains and cultivation methods to increase the algal biofuel intermediate yield by at least 70% AND 2) to develop new drying and extraction technology to reduce the energy for downstream processing by at least 50% AND 3) to work in an integrated outdoor system that reduces the projected minimum selling price(MSP) of algae biomass by 20%.

David Hazlebeck from Global Algae Innovations, gave this illuminating overview as part of the of U.S. Department of Energy’s Bioenergy Technologies Office presentations including what technology they applied for the project, strain improvement, advanced cultivation methods, and more.
