In Algae Biorefineries and Micro Farms, we dive deep into world of algae, it’s products, it’s co products, and more specifically how YOU can make money from the coming “Algae Revolution.” Making algae biofuels is only scratching the surface of this remarkable organism. If you’re serious about making money with algae, then this book is for you.
Perhaps no other opportunity this century has offered the potential of algae-based products. Algae is a basic building block of life itself, therefore, many other products we know today spring from it. In this one-of-a-kind book, we explore the many products, and the many pathways to producing those products.
No other book on the market explores these issues, or details the methods and techniques involved in bringing this “super material” to market.
Once again, David Sieg has composed and excellent guide, whether for fuel, food, animal feed, fertilizer, or even cosmetics. He covers the range from home use to large-scale commercial systems, from a distributed and survival perspective; yet practical enough for modern implementation — a hallmark of true sustainable principles.
We’ll be consulting this guide in the Safe Haven Villages (.org) intention community I’m involved with. In a day when central authority is growing more tenuous, the ability to do things in a distributed model is growing increasingly vital; and it just makes more sense from a seventh-generation sustainability point of view, while still being profitable in today’s economy.
In fact you might consider this as a career that will not only survive the downturn, but help you and many others make it through the worst of times to come; all while pioneering a future industry.

Hi David,
| Yes it does make sense and is very clear. I am a Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering specialized in chemical and biochemical reactors, I have over 400 papers, 4 patents and 4 books…I like your simple books to the ordinary person |

David really knows what he’s talking about when it comes to biodiesel. And his new book “Building Open Ponds” shows it… it’s 277 pages jam packed with tons of great information from growing algae in an old bathtub to large scale algae farms. Great details and pictures to make it as easy as pie even for the novice. David really goes the whole nine yards when he writes a book!

One of the most comprehensive treatments of all aspects of a commercial algae microfarms available anywhere, including equipment lists and cost breakdowns.
In 1995, as one of the first Americans to reenter Vietnam after diplomatic relations were restored, David Sieg, while teaching at a university, started making biofuels, then later, algae biodiesel.
With the oil embargo still in effect, Mr. Sieg used his knowledge of biofuels to run the university generators to get lights and air conditioning. Seeing how many people could benefit, he later opened a algae bio fuels consulting business in Vietnam, and Thailand.
In 2008, knowing the secretive nature of the algae biodiesel industry and the lack of real world info, he created making-biodiesel-books.com to share his knowledge. Here you’ll find real world applications, “How-To” knowledge you won’t find anywhere else.
Other sites might tell you WHAT to do, but none of them tell you HOW to do it. We do.
