Culture BioSystems (formerly known as Culture Fuels) is a technology provider of cultivation platforms for growing low cost algae for fuels, feeds and fine chemicals. Culture BioSystems has developed patent-pending hybrid cultivation platforms FloatAlgae and LandAlgae, highly-productive, low-cost photobiorectors that float on a body of water or are placed on land. They significantly increase algal biomass density which reduces the capital and energy needed for harvesting equipment. The systems also control and minimize evaporation and the concentration of nutrients, salts and buffers while significantly reducing the amount of water required to grow algae. Culture BioSystems has combined the two principal ways of growing algae - open ponds and closed photobioreactors - into a hybrid technology system. This improved engineering solution allows for the production of cost-competitive end products using natural algae strains. The technical process to convert sunlight into algae and then into fuels has been tested by industry and approved by regulators. The current challenge is to produce commodities such as fuels and feed at a competitive cost. There are two principal ways of cultivating algae today open ponds and closed photobioreactors and both face significant challenges to produce algae biomass at an appropriate cost, so that this can then be converted into commodity products. Culture BioSystems has developed a hybrid technology platforms that takes the best of both traditional cultivation methods a low-cost, closed system that can float on an open pond (FloatAlgae) or be deployed on the ground (LandAlgae). This improved engineering design allows for the production of cost-competitive products using natural algae strains. The Culture Fuels cultivation system works with any algae strain and final product market.
