The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) proposes to enter into a subcontract with Arizona State University (ASU) to cultivate algal and cyanobacterial strains at the Arizona Center for Algae Technology and Innovation (AzCATI) at the Polytechnic Campus of ASU in Mesa, AZ. The purpose of the project is to collect data that would be used to model production and conversion cost calculations for the production of algal based biofuels. Data would be collected over an approximately 5-year period.
