Culture Fuel

Company Description

Culture Fuels is a technology provider of cultivation platforms forgrowing low cost algae for fuels, feeds and fine chemicals. Culture Fuels has developed patent-pending hybrid cultivationplatforms FloatAlgae™ and LandAlgae™,highly-productive, low-cost photobiorectors that float on abody of water or are placed on land.  They significantlyincrease algal biomass density which reduces the capital and energyneeded for harvesting equipment.  The systems also control andminimize evaporation and the concentration of nutrients, salts andbuffers while significantly reducing the amount of water requiredto grow algae. Culture Fuels has combined the two principalways of growing algae - open ponds and closed photobioreactors - into a hybrid technology system. This improvedengineering solution allows for the production of cost-competitiveend products using natural algae strains.
