Algae Biofuel

Hi Does any one have a link to kit supply for natural gas (CNG) or propane for SVO diesel vehicle.
I came to know that in Europe they have these kits where you can start the vehicle on the compressed gas and once the oil is heated you can make the change over and shutdown on […]

I’d say that’d be close to what the "Cellruptor" does, only the
Cellruptor requires fewer moving parts.

This guy figures to use the genes from the diesel tree to modify algae, see
6th paragraph.
Stay tuned…

Hi,
I have been trying to grow some Nanochloropsis that I got from
ecogenics. I am growing it in a glass with F/2 in water and a small
airstone with an air pump. Its been a week since I am doing this and

I am […]

Aliendave,
I did not see that they had run any tests of getting the oil out of algae.
If you think it will work, their smallest version uses a 4 horse electric
motor - that is a lot of power. Maybe we could make a miniature one that
use 1/4 horse.

wouldn’t it upset the pH balance or something?
and I guess it would mean constant maintenance too..
