Why algae?  Much cleaner  More Efficient  Cheaper  Can be mass produced

How is algae turned to fuel?  Expression- Oil squeezed out  Ultrasonic Method- creates bubbles, release oil  Solvents  Transesterification- Green Crude to usable substance

Benefits to environment  33:1 estimated energy ratio  Can naturally filter water  Can store and Filter CO2  40% more efficient than gas

Algae compared to other natural fuel sources Plant Source % Seed oil content Oil Yield (L oil/ha year) Land use (M*M year/kg biodiesel) Biodiesel productivity (kg Biodiesel/Ha year) Corn Hemp Canola Sunflower Microalgae70136, ,104

Cost of production  Cost per barrel around $800  Cost per barrel of of crude oil around $90  Must be mass produced  Parity projected 2017

Green Powered Car  Requires Little to know modification  One gallon of biodiesel lasts longer  Cleaner emissions
