Cary Bullock, President & CEO of GreenFuel Technologies, reported a few months ago that biofuels from algae is still years away from major scale production capability.
This process is promising, especially since the algae can be grown in solutions used to absorb Carbon dioxide from industrial smokestacks.

Several experiments have been done and no doubt are ongoing at the moment. None that I'm aware of have been on a large enough scale to be commercially viable - more a case of experimenting to see how feasible it is.
Thermochemical liquefaction may be the first process developed to a viable level and in theory at least, this could be achieved quite quickly if the resources were made available.

I bet like next year. Eventually when nyc is about to be underwater and some of the people that don't believe in global warming are floating away the government will have to pass laws to use seaweed as fuel. Global warming makes me mad.
