CO2 Direct To Ethanol™ using blue-green algae

Algenol Biofuels Inc. announced plans to build its pilot-scale Integrated Bio-Refinery, adjacent to its recently opened laboratories in Lee County, Florida.
The 36-acre facility will demonstrate Algenol’s Direct To Ethanol™ technology, which produces ethanol directly from carbon dioxide using blue-green algae.
The Integrated Bio-Refinery facility brings together Algenol’s capabilities in molecular biology, aquaculture, green chemistry, carbon capture and engineering
for the development and commercialization of sustainable, low carbon-footprint technologies for biofuels and green chemical production.
