Algenol
16151 Lee Road , Fort Myers, Florida, United States

Algenol is a global, industrial biotechnology company that is commercializing its patented algae technology platform for production of ethanol and other biofuels.  Algenol’s patented technology enables the production of the four most important fuels (ethanol, gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel) for around $1.30 per gallon each using proprietary algae, sunlight, carbon dioxide and saltwater at production levels of 8,000 total gallons of liquid fuel per acre per year.  Algenol's technology produces high yields and relies on Algenol’s patented photobioreactors and proprietary downstream separation techniques for low-cost fuel production.  These novel, low-cost techniques have the added benefit of consuming carbon dioxide from industrial sources, not using farmland or food crops and being able to provide freshwater.

ALGAE PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND MANUFACTURING

• Algenol is a global biotechnology company that develops all natural products, as well as customized biology solutions, to meet a variety of needs. Using fundamental science and cutting edge technology to convert algae into high purity commercial products, Algenol developed an extremely productive and highly sustainable platform that provides a distinct edge against the competition
• Algenol’s total algae platform is built on over a decade of experience cultivating and processing multiple types of algae in a best-in-class production system from the lab to commercial scale. The proprietary process yields very high algal production rates and is significantly cleaner than open pond systems. In addition, the process consumes CO2, helping to recycle carbon dioxide, rather than releasing it into the atmosphere.
• Algenol’s world-class team, algae cultivation expertise, proprietary growth system, and state-of-the-art facility combine to produce the highest quality sustainable products at competitive prices.
