Call for Paper: Algae Biofuel Summit 2008

Peering into the future seldom produces a clear picture. But this is not the case with biodiesel. Its long-term impacts on the global economy appear to be pretty clear. The future of biodiesel is secure. The question is what feedstock for biodiesel is sustainable and profitable in the long term. As sustainable alternatives are sought in a bid to enhance energy security as well as reduce carbon emissions, the focus of researchers has shifted to "second- generation" Biodiesel – those not made from food crops such as soy or palm. It has been conclusively established that, in terms of per hectare oil yield, algae could be the most efficient source of feedstock for Biodiesel industry.

Growdiesel Climate Care Council is pleased to invite you to the inaugural International Summit on Algae Biofuels to be held on 18th & 19th September 2008 at New Delhi, India. The conference is focused on next generation of Biofuels using Algae as main feedstock. The summit offers an excellent opportunity to Renewable fuel Sector, their associates and academia to share their valuable experiences and knowledge.

OBJECTIVE
The main objective of the Summit is to provide an improved up-to-date understanding of the next generation feedstocks and technologies in Algae Biofuel Industry. The Summit will be an excellent platform to disseminate information regarding recent research and development activities in the field of Algae, mass production systems, Photobioreactor technologies and other important areas of Algae Biofuel Industry. In view of Biofuels emerging as a trillion dollar futuristic industry, the summit shall bring out many value added consulting opportunities for the speakers as well as industry experts.
