Great video! Finally a green fuels company that states a goal for the price per gallon they're shooting for! I'm an instant critic of any alternate fuels company that doesn't even talk about doing their thing cheaply. Next step: they need to give assurances that it doesn't cost more power to produce than when it is consumed.

actually they get more energy out of the process then what you put in (about 103%)

People, do your research, this is very doable. On a side note? why does everyone shoot down every single idea like its worthless when pretty much every alternative fuel source is viable??? Yes, most are not practical, but everything starts somewhere, and algae fuel is a good idea.

Oh, there's a lot of hidden problems within the process but the main constraint is lowering the cost of the production so that they can sell the oil that is affordable. Heck, growing the algae itself poses a problem. How are you going to do it cheaply? Find a pond and build a plant next to it? (Will the government even *let* you do that?) Build your own artificial tank - (if yes, where are you going to find a big enough plot of land cheaply) and etc. That's just the tip of the iceberg.

It seems simple; 1) grow algae 2) harvest algae3) dry algae4) put dry algae in to oil seedpress5) turn oil from seedpress into biodieselwhat is the problem?

see a manual to do this at home ... shame utube doesn't let us post links, but if you lookup this addy you'll find some interseting reading... global-greenhouse-warming and then the dot making-algae-biodiesel
