When transportation fuels are compared side-by-side, algae oil-delivered fuels offer significant economic, ecological and safety advantages over petroleum products.
Algae Bioenergy Solutions, INC. (ABS) will use state of the art photo bio-reactors/led air systems in an indoor natural climate controlled environment to produce a high volume of oil each day.

.08 - .11 CENTS A KILOWATT
• TO MAKE A PROFIT YOU NEED FREENUTRIENTS, CO2 AND LOW COST ELECTRICITY

WHERE TO FIND FREE OR LOW COST NUTRIENTS
• WASTE WATER TREATMENT PLANTS HAVE PLENTY OF NUTRIENTS (NITRATES, ETC)• PERHAPS 300 PPM AFTER THEY HAVE REMOVED THE “NASTY STUFF”• THEY WANT TO REDUCE NITRATES AND PHOSPHATES AFTER THEY CLEAN THE WATER BEFORE DISCHARGE BACK TO RIVERS & STREAMS• DIVERT ONE OF THEIR EFFLUENT STREAMS TO “YOUR” ALGAE PROCESSING PLANT

Algae (oil) feedstock for biodiesel will be developed and produced at its South Carolina facility:
• Using inexpensive nutrients from waste water and CO2 from our gassifier and digesters we will produce large volumes of algae on a major scale utilizing state of the art photo-bioreactors at our indoor (300,000 square foot)constructed facility.
In 2011 a nearby biodiesel plant will require up to 40 million gallons of feedstock a year and will pay $2.00 to $3.00 USD for that oil.
• Electricity not used in the production process will be sold to nearby industrial facilities, identified and are viable users.
• Dry Algae product not used to produce electricity will be sold as agricultural fertilizer or animal feed.
Algae Bioenergy Solutions, INC. (ABS) is seeking technology and financial partners to develop a 40 Million gallon a year algae processing plant in South Carolina.
