Kent BioEnergy employs commercially viable microalgae-based technologies for liquid fuel production, water pollution remediation, CO2 capture, landfill management, and production of livestock feed additives.
Based on 40 years of technology-driven
indoor and outdoor commercial aquaculture experience, Kent
BioEnergy has advanced, proprietary, and
industrially-relevant solutions for each of the critical
technical and economic obstacles known to remain in the
development of commercial-scale production of liquid fuels
from algae. This includes worldwide exclusive rights to
Clemson University's patented technologies for harvesting
and converting microalgae biomass to biolipids.
Today, Kent BioEnergy has emerged as an industry leader in
the development of advanced concepts for culturing and
harvesting microalgae - single-celled aquatic plants. With
the combination of our solid applied research foundation
and extensive practical experience, the company remains
focused on producing competitively priced renewable energy
alternatives to fossil fuels.
The company has operations in southern California,
including a 160 acre process development/production
facility south of Palm Springs and a research laboratory in
San Diego.
