Biodiesel Production from Algae

Sep-Pro designs and builds algae production and biodiesel processing facilities. Currently we are conducting research on the most capital cost effective approach. Bioreactors and transesterification of algae oil are chemical processes similar to any chemical plant. This is truly green energy but in a very practical context. Carbon dioxide is used as the source of carbon, algae is the vehicle to convert CO2 with solar energy to biomass and transesterification converts to the organic liquid.
            This is the ultimate in carbon dioxide sequestration because it so rapidly consumes carbon dioxide to produce large quantities of biomass, which can be converted, to fuel and/or protein supplement. Sep-Pro will build the bioreactor and conversion reactor. Algae culture requires sophisticated growing procedures. Sep-Pro is developing it own growing and harvesting mechanism.
            Algae biodiesel accelerates the process from which oil was produced. The high heat and pressure is replaced by biochemical reactions.
