AlgaeWorld MENA | 25-27 Feb, 2013 - Dubai

Take a tour around the Masdar Institute and the Algae Research Laboratory in Masdar City! Organized as part of the Algae World MENA Summit to be held in Dubai on 25-27 February, the optional site visit brings you to one of the world's most sustainable cities, relying entirely on solar energy and renewable energy sources.

Via this tour, you will witness the facilities first-hand and learn how native algae strains are being identified and developed in the research lab.

Join us at the Algae World MENA Summit where algae project initiatives, commercial productions and research are soaring in the region. Updates by key experts and industry majors will help you attain a better market appreciation, forecast trends and leverage on the potentials.

Dubbed as the center for algae research, we have secured experts from Abu Dhabi's Masdar Institute to offer you further insights, particularly on topics below:

• Isolation and characterization of microalgae strains from the United Arab Emirates for biofuels and other high value chemicals
  Prof. Hector H. Hernandez,
  Assistant Professor, Chemical Engineering
  Masdar Institute of Science andTechnology

• Co-Production of Biofuels and Value-Added-By-products from Algae
  Prof. Dr. Robert M. Baldwin,
  Professor of Chemical Engineering
  Masdar Institute of Science andTechnology

On top of that, Prof. Dr. Kourosh Salehi-Ashtiani, Associate Professor of Biology from New York University Abu Dhabi, will present a paper on "Genetic Modification and selection of the perfect strain for algae cultivation in outdoor ponds", focusing on:

• Avoiding contamination in large scale ponds
• Isolation and screening of suitable algae strains

If you have a stake in the algae oil and energy business, then you should attend the separately bookable "Algae and CO2 Capture (Process Economics & Cultivation Efficiency)" workshop as well!

Industry experts Mr. Erlend Fjøsna, Programme Director for Carbon Capture and Storage of Bellona Foundation and Dr Navid Moheimani, Senior Lecturer, Algae R&D Centre School of Biological Sciences and Biotechnology at Murdoch University will lead the workshop and share insights that will benefit your business:

• Techno-economic analysis on the carbon capture technologies available
• Advantages & barriers of co-locating algae pond with CO2 industrial sources
• Developing and evaluating approaches for managing the variable nature of both CO2 emissions and algal growth rates/CO2 uptake
• Effects of various flue gases on algae production and co-product quality

This is your chance to expand your contacts and network with algae producers, renewable energy investors, heavyweights from biofuel/ethanol, cement, steel, oil & gas, airlines and aquaculture industries, biotech engineering companies, food science companies, technology providers from algae cultivation to downstream processing technologies, financial institutions, venture capitalists and many more!
