Description
Abstract:NREL?s algae state of technology benchmarking efforts focus both on front-end algal biomass production and separately on back-end conversion to fuels through NREL?s ?combined algae processing? (CAP) pathway. The production model is based on outdoor long-term cultivation data, enabled by comprehensive algal biomass production trials conducted under the Development of Integrated Screening, Cultivar Optimization, and Verification Research consortium (DISCOVR) efforts, driven by data furnished by Arizona State University (ASU) at the Arizona Center for Algae Technology and Innovation (AzCATI) testbed site. The CAP model is based on experimental efforts conducted under NREL research and development projects. This report focuses on back-end conversion of algal biomass through the CAP pathway, highlighting the 2019 updates to minimum fuel selling price (MFSP). This milestone reports on key process sustainability indicators for the CAP conversion stage including mass and carbon yields to fuels and coproducts, freshwater consumption, and facility power balances/natural gas demands.
