Algenol Biofuels Inc. is introducing its DIRECT TO ETHANOL™ technology.
• Algenol Biofuels is an innovative algae to ethanol company.
• Algenol has the most advanced 3rd generation biofuels technology producing ethanol from algae through a process powered by the sun.
• Algenol’s technology produces industrial-scale, low-cost ethanol using algae, sunlight, CO2, and seawater.
• Algenol does not use food, farmland, or fresh water.
• Algenol will produce ethanol at a rate of over 6,000 gallons per acre per year.
• The Direct to EthanolTM process links photosynthesis with the natural enzymes to produce ethanol inside each tiny algae cell.
• The Direct to EthanolTM technology is the only end-to-end commercial process that stabilizes and reduces CO2 levels. Algenol puts CO2 to work.

The Algenol ADVANTAGES are many. The DIRECT TO ETHANOL™ process uses both a proprietary algae and proprietary collection methods to produce cost effective ethanol that:
1. Does NOT require food based feedstocks like corn or sugarcane.
2. Does NOT require harvesting.
3. Does NOT require fossil fuel based fertilizers.
4. Does NOT require fresh water.
5. Does NOT require large amounts of fossil fuel.
6. Does NOT require arable land.
7. Does use desert land and marginal land.
8. Does make fresh water from seawater during the process.
9. Does have an energy balance over 5.5:1 (energy output : fossil fuel input).
