Scalable, cost-efficient algal biomass production is critical to meet the company's goals.  We envision an algae farming infrastructure with a series of vast, hybrid systems across the southern United States using different types of available aqueous mediums (i.e. fresh, salt, sewer, or brackish water).  With only 200 acres of algae farms existing in the USA today, a new industry advancing through healthy competition is likely to result from demand for sustainable and local biofuels.  This provides an opportunity for carbon capture from stationary emission sources such as power plant capable of producing the carbon dioxide required to sustain algae production.

Algae used to produce fuel can be grown using carbon emissions from refineries, power plants and other stationary sources which would otherwise be exhausted into the atmosphere.  Producing algal-derived fuels under this scenario not only reduces reliance on fossil fuels, but enables a secondary use of carbon.  This reduces greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere, marrying the need for renewable fuels and global warming mitigations into a common approach.

Each of the key process elements (production, dewatering/drying, oil extraction, and fuel conversion) must be integrated.   The strength of this management team, along with its unique approach of applied research and startegic alliances across all process elements, provide a unique opportunity to deliver the following products.

Carbon Capture Corporation is a leading company in the business of processing algal-derived renewable diesel, butanol, biomethane and jet fuel propellant.  The Company operates a 40-acre algae center in Imperial Valley, California, with a pond capacity of 8 million gallons, sufficient to produce one metric ton of dry algae each day.

After fuels are produced, the resulting algal biomass can be further processed into feed aggregates and pigments.

Co-products, and co-services such as water treatment, are expected to play a material role in the economic justification for algal-derived fuels.  Because algae can use barren ground, sea water or brackish water not amenable to growing traditional crops, algal-derived fuels do not compete with existing food sources, and are expected to be preferred over those from traditional food crops such as soy or corn.
