How it works

The proposed processing cycle

A shipping container with ten shelves of algae beside a covered processing line of glass tanks, pipework and fans.

1. Collect and remove algae

Algae is collected from the affected shoreline.

2. Load container shelving

It is loaded into a modified 40-foot container fitted with 10 vertical shelving units. The target is 10–15 metric tons per load, subject to engineering confirmation.

3. Preheat in glass tanks

The algae moves to glass processing tanks with preconditioning heat and fan-assisted circulation.

4. Recover fuel or biofuel

The prepared algae is processed to recover fuel. Pilot testing will set product specifications, recovery yields and energy requirements.

5. Blend residual biomass

The remaining biomass is formulated for blending with untreated or desert soils to make them more suitable for farming, subject to testing and field trials.

The cycle then repeats. Production scales by adding processing modules once performance and commercial viability are demonstrated.

Rollout

Proposed shoreline deployment

1. Assess coastal conditions

2. Pilot in affected Caribbean areas

3. Deploy regional processing hubs

4. Expand where demand is verified
