- Abstract
The article reports that entrepreneurs are on the trail of a method to turn algae into a renewable fuel source. Sapphire Energy had secured over $100 million in funding for such a project, which is said to be enough to begin commercial-scale production. PetroSun Inc. made an agreement to establish an algae-to-biofuel farm in China. Solazyme Inc. had created the first algal jet fuel to meet ASTM ( formerly the American Society for Testing and Materials) standards.
