Testing, research, development supporting algae produced biofuels.
tuvpak tests algae biofuel quality, biofuel components, and other materials made from algae. tuvpak biofuel research and production support helps clients optimize R&D efforts, and reduce and avoid issues caused from contaminated or out-of-specification biofuels. Technologies for production of biofuels from algae include usage of waste-stream CO2 from industrial plants, which promotes the growth of algae that can be converted into fuel-grade ethanol and biodiesel.
tuvpak biofuel laboratories support algae produced biofuels research and development programs with a wide range of analytical testing capabilities.
Algae biofuel testing support:
- Micro-algae Growth Rate Determination (at a given set of conditions, analogous to corrosion testing).
- Nutrient Effects (maximize oil content)
- Silicon Content
- Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen and Oxygen (CHNO) Analysis
- Metals Content of Algae
- Total Oil Content of Algae
- Composition of Algae Oil (including metals and triglycerides)
- Research and Development expertise
- Quality Control in Manufacturing on Algae Farms
- Pilot Plant Testing to Convert Algae Oil to Jet and Diesel fuels
