18 gallons per acre per year for corn, 800 for palm, 20,000 for algae, so why is corn the main feedstock in the US for biofuel. Scaling up, a 100 acre pond using local sewage as a feedstock could produce 2 million gallons of biofuel a year worth a couple of million dollars, shit. Some people are going to become seriously rich.

the grain is fine because the reason infrstructure is already underway for the production of biofuel ethanol from corn. Algae is stilll a phase expreimentsl and there must be some unexpected problem.

Not only is the “debt”, but the nation’s debt and the debt incurred mankind for life and a future for life. As the fastest growing plant algae not only consumes faster than carbon, but speeds up the oxygen – along with reforestation (carbon reservoir of nature, a source of fresh water and O2) – is how to cure the layer ozone, as is plain from the abundance of oxygen in the first luogo.Poi hey, who were looking for algae since 1950. Let’s get it unstuck from research devel’mt

Yeah, New Mexico’s not using much of their land anyways. Drove through their on my way to AZ, it’s pretty much a majestic, massive plain-plateu. There’s lots of free space, and a good climate sunlight-wise.

Not exactly. Grains are from farmers, Algae would be mostly corporation based. It’s a threat to politicians because they need farmers vote for them. Another thing, If Algae is really as per research found theoretically, it would create lots of trade imbalance and oil production nations will gone bankrupt within short period of time. The equilibrium btw OPEC nations n Algae producing nations, in standard of living and will fall backward at least 50+ yr. m not to mention political stability.

USDA and politicians want to keep farmers as farmers, Algae production will put them out of job and probably turn them to production line factory workers at low wages that replaceable by cheaper available labors. Another things, Oil companies contributions would vanish if they promote Algae too aggressively.

There would still be a need for American farmers. Instead of growing corn for biofuel they could grow corn for feeding people. As far as what would happen to OPEC, WHO CARES.

So your saing the Alge is a good thing that might work??

Yes, that microalgae is the world’s fastest growing plant, so then makes oxygen & sequesters carbon faster than any other plant, while yielding a high lipid (fat) content, with a high nutritional profile, allowing people to get their greens at the same time, in the same bite. That fat is also oil potentially for biofuels. But I’d consider that a secondary use, as combustion of oxygen & its attending production of carbon at such rates as we’re prone to is THE problem in the 1st place.

Therefore, if the alghe it puts outside a coal bag, What Ã¨ the solution in order to go green 100%?

It doesn’t put out carbon but takes it in. Unless you mean “takes it out of circulation”, then yes. I believe the solution for going “%100 green” is to be found between us all, all our perspectives rounding out eachothers’ idiosyncracies. Yes, we need scientists, but their overspecialization & too often betrothal to their corporate funders compromises making systems simple enough to be done on the cottage industry (small outfit) level. If we wait 4 big biz we wont meet the window 2 sustain life

Your confusing me (IDIOSYNCACIES) I don’t know what that means. Give it to me shright is Algae the best way right now. What would you choose is the way for going green. Alage or BioDiesal?

a loop. there is no NEW carbon put into the air.

Why isn’t the government funding this?!

By: Zealless

Zealless — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 07:10:51 +0000

because US government have plenty of oil field in Iraq ? they care about their TERM holding power . . . not the future . . . as simple as that . . .

The VertiGro Technology has been demonstrated over a year ago by now. Given the efficiency power of algae, I wonder if NASA is probably experimenting with a symbiotic astronaut suit where algae is used as air recycler.
