Technology
The cornerstone of RWE as it exists today is a proprietary system (bioreactor/cell) in which algae is grown, harvested, and pressed into two primary product lines: algae oil and algae cake. The resultant algae oil can meet Biodiesel ASTM and EU specifications and the algae cake can either be sold as livestock feed or further processed (gasified) to produce syn gas. A tertiary benefit of the system is its potential use for reclaiming CO2 emissions from exhaust flu gas. Each algae facility consists of hundreds of reactors lined up row after row, controlled by a central operational control system.
