Biodiesel: Jatropha And Algae Oil Extraction Screw Press

http://pacificoilproducts.com/videos.htm
This is a customized press that we use and sell for extracting oil from jatropha seeds. It is also the first mechanical press to successfully extract oil from micro-algae. It works great with food oils: soybean, mustard, canola, jojoba, peanuts, etc.

With jatropha, I can extract almost 4 barrels of oil in a 24-hour period, and this is the small, mobile press. There are 3 larger sizes. We extract 92 to 94% oil from feedstock. The unit can run continuously for years.

Power requirements:
220V
6 Amps
1 Phase
50/60 Hz

No details, so what is the purpose of this video. You could have at least basically described the device, the cost, where you got it, something.

The vertical tube farming gives algae the per-acre advantage. The sky is the limit. Micro Algae is 5000-15000 gallons of oil per acre. Fed with carbon dioxide, grows fast, 2 days seed to harvest, syphoned off continuiously, centrifuge it down to get the paste/sludge and crush that to get oil, then distilled and further refined for use as food, oil, and ethanol. Cavitational (sound waves) cracking (refining) is also being used.

This is an the best option to replace fossil fuel. Most of the crude was created by the earth from algae, if I'm not mistaken.
