List of algae companies

Below is a list of some algae fuel producers throughout the world. A number of approaches are being taken for algae based biofuels. Some companies are taking approaches of synthetic biology for fuels, while others are working to identify strains that are naturally high oil producers.

A


A2BE Carbon Capture

Puts algae to work to convert CO2 into biofuels, foods, and fertilizers to rebalance the carbon content of the atmosphere.

Accelergy Corporation

Aleor

Seaweeds cultivation and processing for human food and blue chemistry (cosmetics, energy).
Located in Brittany, France, Aleor cultivates half a dozen of different species, and develops other species cultivation processes each year to address most of the industrial needs.

Algae Biosciences Corporation

Algae Floating Systems, Inc

Creates carbon capture and sequestration systems for power plants and industrial facilities that profitably convert CO2 and solar energy into renewable fuels and other valuable products.
Algaen Corporation
