Sustainable Agro Biotech has been developing proprietary technologies to recycle carbon dioxide emission into microalgae varieties with growth and oil production capabilities and to achieve commercially feasible harvesting of microalgal products.
The company operates facilities in Gainesville, Florida and a 10-acre facility in Puerto Rico in partnership with University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez.
AFA will work with Sustainable Agro Biotech to further its research and develop a viable algae-to-biofuels capacity.
AFA expects to engage in all phases of the biodiesel process – planting, growing and harvesting Jatropha, crushing and refining Jatropha seeds into biodiesel, and selling the biodiesel or green fuel oil into the local markets.
