Companhia aérea chilena assina acordo para fornecimento de algas para biocombustível de jactos

(Notícia em Inglês)
PetroAlgae Inc., a leading US renewable energy company that licenses its commercial micro-crop technology globally, has announced it has entered into a non-binding off-take supply agreement with Sky Airline, a leading Chilean airline providing passenger, mail, and cargo air transportation services.

Subject to certain conditions, Sky Airline and PetroAlgae have agreed to collaborate to enable Sky Airline to purchase the fuel feedstock produced by licensees of PetroAlgae’s technology as a feedstock for conversion into renewable jet fuel.

PetroAlgae currently licenses and deploys the leading biomass production platform to address existing and growing unmet needs in the global energy and agriculture markets. Its proprietary technology, consisting of light and environmental management systems, allows its customer licensees to grow aquatic microorganisms at a rate that consistently exceeds four times the natural growth rates. This enables the commercial-scale production of two end-products: a fuel feedstock and a protein. The fuel feedstock is intended to be used principally in existing refineries, resulting in renewable fuels, including renewable jet fuel.
