The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to NMC to develop novel processes for outdoor cultivation of algal strains. The project would seek to improve harvest yield, robustness, and conversion yield. Process changes would focus on strain selection, maintenance, cultivation improvement, and pest management in order to achieve the desired improvements. Genetic modification of species would not be performed.
