(Algae Biomass Organization) … Algae, encompassing photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic aquatic organisms including microalgae and seaweeds (macroalgae), create a highly versatile and tunable platform for the development of fuels and products.  In most cases, large scale algae production can be done on marginal land, including the underdeveloped coastal area around the US [4] that is unsuitable for food crops. Algae farms can currently produce over 60 metric tons of dry biomass per hectare per year[5] and may consume up to 1.8 kg of CO2 per kg of biomass[6]. Thus, algae farming – microalgae and macroalgae (seaweed) – plays a potentially significant role in carbon capture 4. … State of the art catalytic upgrading of algae-derived oils and products creates fuels and products that are completely tunable to material applications and drop-in fuels including biodiesel, marine-grade diesel and jet fuel.
