Benefits of Soil Free Agriculture for Biofuel Production



Nowadays, demand and supply graph is rising at the exponential rate and the reason behind this particular phenomenon is population explosion on this planet. The conclusion is very simple and clear- demand of every product in the market is increasing and supply is considerably decreasing due to limited natural resources. Hence, researchers and scientists keep finding new and efficient ways to make this gap of demand and supply narrower.

Like every other product which is essential for sustainable growth of mankind, oil and fuel are going through the same phase of scarcity. Therefore, many companies have come up with the novice agricultural technique for the production of biofuel, and it is named as soil free agriculture. As the name suggests this type of agriculture doesn’t need any soil to produce, but the question is what can be produced without soil and how it can be beneficial for the production of biofuel?

Algae is produced underwater which neither demand soil nor water for its growth, moreover the yield is considerably very high as compared to the production we get from oilseed crushing of Canola, Flax or Soybean. Hence in near future, soil free agriculture for the production of biofuel from algae is going to revolutionize the lifestyle of human beings.

Importance of Oil Seed Crushing to Produce Oil



There are times when people are very much content with the oil resources and with their usage. It was due to the fact that the resources were abundant and prices were cheaper. But now the time has been changed and so does the needs of people. Researchers have started working on the projects to find alternatives to the present fuel crisis way before it started. After years of research work they have come to the conclusion of using algae to produce oil.

Earlier, the oil is being produced from plants such as Canola, Flax and Soybean by oil seed crushing, and still used to produce the same. But the main point of concern is low yield and high usage of land. To tackle this problem, many companies have proposed the idea of soil free agriculture in which algae is grown to harvest high yields of oil. If you are looking for a company that can provide you high yield of oil then you need to make sure that the company is reliable and have enough experience in the field, else you might end up in losing your time as well as you money.

Algae Biofuel holds bright potential in future

As the world becomes more environmentally responsive, everybody is looking for greener technologies that can be affordable as well as suitable for the mother Earth. Pollution is one of the main burning topics and concerned areas on which many researchers and energy investors are making efforts to curb it down. The establishment of suburbs and spreading out of cities led to the rise in the numbers of large, gas-gulping cars and trucks on the road, plus the air pollution was growing more rampant, petitioning the question, "How can we find economical, dirt free, renewable energy?"
There are many companies that have joined in this vision with full commitment and dedication, and seeing algae as a prospective and cost-effective feasible Biofuel for future. The main cause behind this revelation is because of plummeting reservoir of petroleum and other fuel products. In an effort to endorse algae research, the government has brought in a bill to uphold investment tax credits for algae Biofuel refineries. The call for long-term fuel resources and less reliance on crude oil are the main causes behind the development of viable biofuels.

Now, the question arises, what actually is a Biofuel and whether it can replace the current fuel alternatives? Biofuel is any fuel produced from biomass, or organic material. Now considering the advantages of making Biofuel from algae, unlike Canola seeds or Soybean seeds, Algae only feeds on sunlight, ocean and carbon dioxide, waste water to grow. Furthermore, algae can potentially yield as high as 15,000 gallons per acre, while its counterparts can only give the yield of up to 50 gallons per acre. With such high beneficial value, manufacturing Biofuel from algae has a bright prospective in future.
