Hi bobby, to the best of my knowledge, the conversion rate is 1:1 but you will end up with 10-15% glycerol. Navid ... wouldn't you end ... than ... conversion ...

Navid, I think you are correct. The process splits the original oil molecule apart and substitutes alcohol for part of it. You only end up with 80% of the...

I am an engineer and I am looking at the technical problems of algae growth. My question is "Does the algae get the CO2 for the air or must the CO2 be...
NY, Both can be true. Guessing at the way you meant the question - the CO2 must be dissolved in the water. Some designs have CO2 from sources that are a...
Actually we looked at that, similar to carbonation, there is too much effort to push that into the equation cost effectively. The algae get that directly from...
My understanding is that Algaefuels.org is a subsidiary of the Dutch company Bioking. Their Canadian office is at: http://www.algaefuels.org/algaecontact.htm ...
Short answer: The algae extract the CO2 from that dissolved in the water. Dissolved in water, some CO2 dissociates into carbonic acid but most remains as a...
Thanks for your information, I like to clarify that paddle wheels are used normally to increase the 02 concentration and that is suited for the open ponds and...
Gents, Consider, also that CO2 dissolves better in colder water - consider carbonated drinks, but most algae probably prefer warmer water, and of course...
I want to start growing algae for fun and experimentation. Does anyone out there have any ideas on the most oil rich algae that I can try. I am a nooob to...
Dr. Selvaraj, I believe that algae does not need O2. It makes O2 from CO2. In fact, if the O2 concentration gets too high, it will prevent the algae from...
