While the alga has long been considered a potential source of biofuel, and several companies have released algae-based fuel at the research level, their fuel is projected to be more expensive. Our technology uses clusters of energy potential of algae to effectively and includes a number of methods to reduce the cost of producing algae and fuel.

We simplified the production of crude oil from algae by combining several steps into one continuous process. The most important cost-saving step is that the process works with wet algae. Most current processes require the algae to be dried — a process that takes a lot of energy and is expensive. The new process works with algae slurry that contains as much as 100 to 120 percent water.

New Technology “cluster” also eliminates another step required in today’s most common algae-processing method: the need for complex processing with solvents like hexane to extract the energy-rich oils from the rest of the algae. Instead, the Technology “cluster” works with the whole algae, subjecting it to degradation by means of “simbulation”, i.e. breakdown of molecules with ionization and produce stable molecular clusters of hydrocarbon fuel “Carbionic.”
