**Advantages of Algae Oil As a Feedstock**:
A benefit of mircroalgae is that it grows quickly. Current feedstock production rates for "standing crops" such as Soy Beans, Camelina, Rape Seed, and Jetropha are in the 200 to 400 gallon per acre per year range. Palm Oil is a little better with 400 to 700 gallons per acre per year. These productions rates fall far short of the production rates per acre of Algae which is currently delivering up to 50,000 gallons of oil per acre per year from open pond systems. The most recent developments in Algae Oil production systems using genetically engineered Algae strains indicate that production rates with "closed photo bio reactors" will exceed 100,000 gallons of Algae Oil per acre per year. These and other factors, such as the market for biodiesel in non-automotive areas, which include home heating oil and power generating plant fuels, have led to the decision to pursue the production of Algae Oil to be sold as a feedstock for the biodiesel industry. Producing A Fuel From Plant And Animals Oils Is a Relatively Simple Process.That Has Been Proven Over Many Years. The procecess is stable an not nearly as hazardous as the production of petrodiesel. Production process also produces little or no noxious gasses to pollute the air around the refinery. the production of biodiesel requires one eighth of the energy required to produce ethanol and is usable in its undiluted state. Algae oil is a answer to the success of renewable energy.The Production Of Algae Oil Is Almost nonexistent in the US at this point in time making this extremely sound venture. 1) Grow Algae 2) Harvest The Algae And 3) Extract The Oil And Biomass.
