Global Green Solutions' algae-to-biofuel technology mass produces algae and extracts the algae oil. The oil can then be refined into a cost-effective, non-polluting diesel biofuel. The algae derived fuel will be an energy efficient replacement for fossil fuels and can be used in any diesel powered vehicle or machinery.

Current data projects high yields of algae biomass, which will be harvested and processed into algal oil for biofuel feedstock and ingredients in food, pharmaceutical, and health and beauty products.

The algae are grown in high-density vertical bioreactors constructed from plastic sheeting. Flow paths formed within the plastic sheeting allow water and algae to constantly circulate through the bioreactors. Using the natural process of photosynthesis, maximum exposure to sunlight and the absorption of carbon dioxide, the algae reproduces rapidly.

The self-contained Global Green Solutions Vertical Bioreactor uses little water and can be built on nonarable land and close to industrial facilities, where it will absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and industrial flue stacks, major contributors to global warming. The removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere can generate marketable Carbon Emission Reduction (CER) credits in Kyoto Protocol signatory countries, turning emissions reductions into financial assets.
