As I have posted once or twice before, one of our researchers here has cracked the Algae separation issue and is awaiting a patent on the process. If all goes well, he has found a simple, energy efficient, way to extract it. And it is in cooperation with a fairly large Bio Diesel producer in the South West who will incorporate it. They won't even tell me exactly what the process is until they get the patent but I have been given a few hints but not enough to explain any of it yet. It is all pretty hush hush of course. Thats really the only stumbling block with Algae has been getting it to release its Oil. Its pretty well bound up. And it takes a lot of energy, with traditional methods up until now, to get it to release the oil. But he claims to have achieved it.
