  1. Name and LOGO of the partner Name of the speaker Presents BIOFAT – BIOfuel From AlgaeTechnologies Name and LOGO of the event Date and Place A European project supportedthrough the Seven Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development

  2. BIOFAT – BIOfuel From AlgaeTechnologies BIOFAT is part of the Algae Cluster together with two more projects A European project supportedthrough the Seven Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development

  3. BIOFAT – BIOfuel From AlgaeTechnologies Objective “To demonstrate at industrial scale (10 ha) the feasibility of biofuel production from microalgae” • BIOFAT will demonstrate at 10-ha scale proven and tested technologies developed by Consortium members at small scale. The three main targets are: • energy efficiency • economic positive result • environmental sustainability • BIOFAT will develop the Algorefinery concept through sustainability. A European project supportedthrough the Seven Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development

  4. BIOFAT – BIOfuel From AlgaeTechnologies Technological Approach • The project will integrate all the processes from single cell to biofuel production. • The production stage will be based on photobioreactors for inocula production, and raceways for production of bulk biomass and induction of oil/starch accumulation, necessary to obtain the biofuel (biodiesel and bioethanol). • Carbon dioxide derived from fermentation will be used. A European project supportedthrough the Seven Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development

  5. BIOFAT – BIOfuel From AlgaeTechnologies Project description • Microalgae to biofuel Demonstration project includes: • farming area of 10-ha for microalgae cultivation • annual productivity target of 100 tons dry biomass per ha • Industrial carbon dioxide derived from fermentation to be used as raw material • Production based on different technologies: • low-energy consuming photobioreactors for inocula production • High productivity technology • raceway ponds for production of bulk biomass and oil/starch accumulation • Cell oil and carbohydrate accumulation obtained by nutrient stress. A European project supportedthrough the Seven Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development
