Algae Biofuel Summit 2008
Algae Biofuel Summit 2008
Similar to plants, algae converts solar energy, CO2 & water to valuable chemical energy via photosynthesis. This chemical energy is stored in algae as lipid oils and can be converted into biodiesel. The residual algae de-oiled cake is a high protein matter and can be used as animal/ cattle feed, organic fertilizer and nutritional supplements.
Algae Farming Technologies could allow companies to capture and recycle emitted CO2 from flue gases and even earn a profit from being “green”. Companies, having issues with environmental control, can surely benefit from such technologies. The beautiful part of this technology is that industrial facilities do not need large internal modifications to host an algae farm.
These promising technologies shall be showcased by Growdiesel at “Algae Biofuel Summit 2008” from 17th to 19th Sept 2008 at New Delhi, India. The discounted Early Bird registration is NOW open.
“Algae Farming for Oil” is currently the hottest opportunity in global biofuel industry. Over five billion US$ dollar has been committed in Algae research by venture funds and large companies including Department of Defense in USA. Algae Farming can be done in waste land using saline water. Algae Farming shall not displace croplands currently used for food crops. The best part is that algae farming can be started at any scale from 1 acre/hectare to 100000 acres/hectare.
Participating in Summit is the quickest and easiest way to learn in great depth about algae biodiesel. The three day summit shall provide you all the essential info to jump start in this futuristic industry.
