Microalgae Commodities from Coal Plant Flue Gas CO2 - August 8-12, 2016

Primary Objective: detailed site specific Techno-economic Analysis (TEA) and Life Cycle Assessment (LCAs) for the Orlando Utilities Commission Stanton energy Center OUC-SEC Coal-fired power plant for CO2 utilization /mitigation options: Case 1 (Budget Period 1) Biogas production from algal biomass to replace coal for maximum CO2 mitigation (Budget Period 1), and Case 2 Production of commodity microalgae animal feeds, for maximum beneficial economic use of flue gas CO2 (BP2) 

Secondary Objective: experimental work at OUC-SEC and UF to demonstrate algae biomass production using flue gas CO2 with native algae and conversion to biogas and animal feeds
