GreenShift's C02 Bioreactor

fermentation??

We waste far too much energy, a good example is the vacuum cleaner.
Air Recycling Technology if used in Vacuum Cleaners could actually save each year in the UK, an amount of energy equal to that generated by 800 Medium sized wind generators.
That is 1.5 TWh of electricity worth £225,000,000 and 650,000 Tonnes of CO2, Emissions. And a saving of more than 25 Twh of electricity annually is possible in the EU. Equal to £3.25 billion pounds and 13.5 million tonnes of CO2.Emissions.

I understand that it takes Co2 from existing Coal Fired Power Plants. 1 question; Where to get the Co2 feed stock once the last "Coal Fired Generator is "CLOSED DOWN" due to OBSOLESCENCE. I just need to know. Please Answer this question.

here's the problem with this, YOU'RE BURNING FUEL TO MAKE FUEL. it contradictory. plus this process looks like it will take a while to produce the algae needed to make the oil. you can make algae in 2 days with the right equipment and ample sunlight. this looks like it will take not only time but lots of money for the equipment to build something like this.

the fuel you are using to grow it is was first used to create gas/energy in the first place, you are recycling it. Although this does look like an extremely expensive system

Obama's environmental bill could fund this

This sounds pretty interesting!

I tried to do a project similar to this for a science project using isochrysis galbana, but when I added CO2 to the solution the carbonic acid lowered the pH to around 5, while my algae thrives at a pH of 8. Long story short we didn't see much growth haha. It's important to take a pH drop into consideration for something like this when picking your algae, or else be ready to make a buffer of some sort.

You have to add bicarbonate to your culture medium to stabilize the pH. Use Henry's Law for CO2 and carbonic acid/bicarbonate equilibrium to determine the concentration of bicarbonate required in your medium. I have a working research grade photobioreactor system and have published papers on the subject so I know how this works.

Millions of acres of fiber optics? You've gotta be kidding me.
