Hybrid Algae Production System (HAPS) to Advance Timetable for Commercial Production
Applicant: Idaho Sustainable Energy, LLC. (ISE)
March 15, 2013
The Hybrid Algae Production System (HAPS), built by an ISE consortium of companies, is an engineered closed
pond system for production of microalgae biomass combining the commercially scalable advantages of pond
systems with the added benefits of closed photo bioreactor systems without the high cost.
There has been a general controversy for years: open ponds or closed photo bioreactors? Both these systems
have huge problems to solve. Neither has emerged as the winner. The US Department of Energy (DOE) Aquatic
Species Program (ASP), which covered a period of almost 20 years, clearly identified the required physical
aspects of systems to increase algal biomass production and lower costs.
In 2007, after many years of research, the team members of this proposal constructed a 100,000 liter HAPS
(Hybrid Algae Production System) demonstration facility in Montana, one of the largest algae growth projects
ever built in the United States. The purpose of this facility was to address and solve all of the mechanical and
environmental problems clearly outlined in the ASP.
The 100,000 liter demonstration facility, which operated for nine months in Montana, clearly addressed the
following issues:
1) HAPS covered ponds were manually constructed several times to determine the labor requirements of
such systems, demonstrate inexpensive construction methods and prove these significant reductions in
construction costs.
2) The coverings were investigated and finally built with no internal structural support. This is clearly an
advantage not only in construction cost but in avoiding damaging results from high wind conditions.
HAPS covered ponds in Montana successfully survived high winds during the demonstration period of
up to 60 mph with no damaging effects.
3) Inexpensive and durable materials for construction of pond liners and coverings were extensively
investigated and identified with a 20 year guarantee from the manufacturer at low cost.
HAPS has also addressed many problems which have plagued the algae industry as follows:
1) Temperature control for summer and winter. Summer ambient temperatures of up to 105° F (40° C) were
encountered. The HAPS covered ponds maintained temperatures usually associated with successful
algae production. Temperature charts were kept during winter conditions where average daytime
temperature was 43° F (6° C) (and below freezing at night) and inside pond temperatures were
maintained even on cloudy days at 68° F (20° C), which was an efficient temperature range for algae
growth. The critical control of daily temperature swings (daily maximum and minimum temperatures)
was also successful. Usually average daily temperature swings for much of the United States vary
between 30° F (17° C) and as much as 40° F (22° C). These daily swings in temperature shock the algae
and significantly reduce algae biomass production. HAPS reduces the daily temperature swing shock
from 32° F down to 10° F (18° C down to 5° C). Therefore, significantly increasing production of
biomass.
2) Control of evaporation, pH, salinity and light. These factors were also addressed successfully and HAPS
exhibited significant control of these parameters due to the unique enclosure.

3) HAPS requires brackish water, saltwater or fresh water, as well as sunlight, carbon dioxide (CO2) and
certain proprietary nutrients. Growth is directly linked to the amount of CO2 available in the water from,
for instance, power plant stack emissions or other industrial sources. The capacity of water to hold CO2
for maximum algae uptake is optimized by other proprietary processes in HAPS covered ponds.
4) During high algae growth periods, at high sunlight conditions, algae photosynthesis can produce
enormous quantities of oxygen. These high levels of oxygen can severely inhibit algae growth. HAPS
successfully demonstrates an efficient low cost method for the removal of oxygen.
5) The unique design of HAPS and its associated pond flow dynamics have successfully addressed multiple
other problems associated with algae production, including prevention of algae self-shading, nutrient
distribution, efficient gas exchange, such as CO2 intake and oxygen removal, and hydrodynamic
parameters to maintain a uniform flow gradient for adequate algae suspension.
The success of the Montana demonstration facility justifies a full scale production system to prove that we can
significantly advance the timetable for commercial algae production. The proposal has been previously submitted
to the US DOE. It was advanced to the oral presentation stage and the following quotes from the DOE letter to
Idaho Sustainable Energy listed the merits of the proposal:
? “The company appears to have a well-qualified and experienced leadership team.”
? “The engineer in charge is experienced in design, development, and construction process.”
? “The Project Management Plan is fully integrated with financial and business systems.”
? “The company has existing operations at the biodiesel facility that substantiate its abilities and
experience.”
? “The team demonstrates that it has strong commercialization experience and engineering leaders.”
? “The applicant has demonstrated an ability to build and operate pilot and commercial scale facilities.”
? “The proposal possesses a stage gate method that adequately described and is coordinated with a
resource loaded schedule.”
? “The project is innovative and ambitious.”
The target level of performance of the proposed technology is well establish as it is identified in the ASP that 50
grams per square meter per day of algae growth would be necessary for a successful commercial production. The
ASP also proved that on days where the above parameters were met, this target could clearly be reached.
Therefore, we believe that by controlling these parameters, HAPS can reach this production target averaged over
at least ten months of the year. The ASP in New Mexico was crippled and plagued because of daily shock
temperatures, inefficient temperature control during the seasons, invasion of other species in the open pond
system, and massive evaporation levels in hot weather. All these problems are prevented by HAPS due to its
enclosed environment.
The current Algae Industry has not provided cost effective algae farm commercialization because of high costs
of currently proposed setups and the fact that they do not produce enough algae biomass to be commercially
successful. HAPS clearly brings the time line closer to large scale commercialization of algae.
The HAPS demonstration facility sufficiently shows the economic viability of this system in a commercial
setting. It has overcome all the shortcomings described in the Aquatic Species Program. It is inexpensive to
build, controls essential parameters to maximize growth, produces adequate quantities of biomass for
commercial success and can easily be implemented for large scale production.
The key technical risk of this project is to prove that we can lower the production cost in a commercial size
facility and duplicate the success of the 100,000 liter HAPS demonstration facility in Montana. This first
commercial project can justify the investment in larger HAPS algae farms to further reduce the cost of

production by taking advantage of economies of scale.
Other proprietary technology which will greatly benefit this project is the development of nutrient growth
boosters by ISE for the commercial scale production of algae to increase growth of algal biomass in shorter time
intervals.
Testing of this micronutrient formula by qualified outside research laboratories clearly indicates an increase in
algal biomass of up to 200%. The formula was tested on several types of algae including freshwater and
saltwater algae and so far we have found all of them to be responsive. The growth seems to be quite unusual in
the fact that it increases the number of algae cells and, at the same time, it also increases cellular size of algae.
This has been effectively proven by our laboratory photographic evidence. There are no other research data
currently available about technologies demonstrating increased number of cells simultaneously with increased
cell size. Increasing biomass growth is the key to commercial production and further research is required to
identify all the commercial benefits derived from this unique approach to algal nutrition.
Also beneficial to this project is the recent work done by the team which has cultivated and developed two
special strains of algae which exhibit high growth rates, high oil content and resistance to environmental
changes. In addition, the team has established laboratory facilities including bioreactors for algae incubating and
field laboratory facilities. We also have access, through collaboration with universities, to sophisticated high tech
lab facilities.
The Principal Investigator (PI) and Project Team have the skill and expertise needed to successfully execute the
project plan. The team is highly qualified with more than 50 years of combined experience. It is comprised of
professional engineers, PhDs, research and business personnel. All team members have been involved in the
algae industry and associated alternative energy fields. The team members have collectively authored or coauthored
over 50 technical publications, and have many patents, patents pending and trade secrets to their credit.
The entire team has prior experience which demonstrates an ability to perform R&D tasks of similar risk and
complexity. Team members were responsible for building one of the largest algae demonstration projects in
2007. Idaho Sustainable Energy (ISE) also has the availability of entire fabrication facilities and experienced
sub-contract personnel who have not only built entire biodiesel facilities but also constructed the demonstration
facility in Montana. In addition, we have land, know-how, field construction experience, equipment, and the
technical expertise to complete this project.
The Montana demonstration was financed privately. Team members currently maintain R&D facilities, continue
relationships with staff at several reputable universities and research institutions and have worked together on
prior projects including a large Idaho Sustainable Energy proposal to DOE.

Green Star Products Announces New Patent, Initial 2014 Sales and Product Shipments
Green Star Products Announces New Patent, Initial 2014 Sales and Product Shipments
SALT LAKE CITY, UT--(Marketwired - Mar 28, 2014) - Today the President of Green Star Products, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: GSPI), Joseph LaStella, assessed the outlook for the second quarter of 2014 for GSPI and reviewed the first quarter accomplishments.
Mr. LaStella stated, "Early in 2011 Green Star announced a new business strategy to increase revenue for the company without requiring additional capital investment by licensing sales of our line of environmentally friendly products to other companies. In 2012 and 2013 we saw significant spending by many of these potential new partners on research into and future marketing of our products. GSPI at that time also formed alliances with other green companies to offer their products to Green Star's customer base as well."
The first quarter of 2014 has begun to show the results of GSPI's new strategy as follows:
1) After nine years of patent pending status, Joseph LaStella, President of Green Star Products, was notified by the US Patent and Trademark Office that his high-tech loop reactor patent was issued on February 11, 2014 (US Pat. #8648209) "Loop Reactor for Making Biodiesel Fuel". The loop reactor is the backbone of the highly efficient biodiesel plants manufactured by Green Star Products. Most present day biodiesel production systems require up to three hours and three different processes to convert feedstock oils through a transesterification process to produce crude biodiesel. The loop reactor does all these processes in one step and in less than five minutes. As a result, this patent significantly reduces the capital cost of a biodiesel plant. It also increases plant production capacity with less man power, reduces maintenance costs, reduces final product costs and reduces the carbon footprint of the plant. Although in the United States support for continued use of biodiesel in fuel markets has been weak due to high biodiesel feedstock prices, this is not true for the rest of the world. In countries around the world fuel prices are twice those in the United States. The issuance of this patent continues to propel GSPI into the forefront of this emerging industry.
2) In 2013, GSPI signed an agreement with Modern Spartan Systems, LLC (MSS) for the development and sales of our anti-wear and anti-friction product line, which would be used for high-tech lubrication in military, police, competition firearms and hunting weapons (see http://modernspartansystems.com and http://tvtsales.com for more information). In 2013, Modern Spartan Systems commenced ordering product and has aggressively pursued markets for GSPI lubricant products as follows: A) MSS Accuracy Oil has been verified by many professionals to significantly increase the long range accuracy of military and sporting rifles (rifle barrels). B) Due to the success of its testing program, MSS in recent months has been able to sign agreements with four arms manufacturers. Specifically, these manufacturers have agreed to include MSS products in their primary sales packaging as a standard product for use with their firearms. C) Recent tests also include the MSS lubricant effects on the high speed mechanical actions of automatic weapons. One test included firing an AR-15 semi automatic rifle without cleaning the rifle. The AR-15 succeeded in rapid firing 2,000 rounds without a mishap, which is an astonishing accomplishment. D) MSS has also expanded into the agricultural industry. Already in 2014, GSPI has delivered a moderate size order (85,000 ounces) to MSS for this market. Furthermore, this order also included a newly developed product requested by the agricultural industry, namely TVT Green Grease Formula, which MSS anticipates will be a high demand product.
3) Green Star is also marketing a variety of advanced coatings offering strong, rust and thermal resistance with up to 15 year field warranties. The company participated in successfully completing a four building project at an important U.S. Government facility in 2011. At the same time, we have concentrated heavily on introducing these products into China and other Asian markets. The Chinese marketplace has been difficult to break into because they do not accept most of the test work done by outside entities. GSPI has had an office in Beijing for over two years, which has integrated with both private firms and government agencies to bridge this gap and has been successfully completing all the required tests. GSPI has delivered minor orders to China during the past two years and anticipates much larger orders (shipping container size) in 2014.
4) Green Star Products is also recognized as a leader in the algae industry. We have proceeded with several research and development programs during the past years and will continue in 2014 and beyond. These programs include our participation with private companies and universities as well as federal agencies. We have also introduced our algae technology into the Chinese market.
In conclusion, we expect 2014 to be an exciting technological year for Green Star and we fully expect that we have emerged from a very difficult economic downturn over the past five years to produce our first revenue and profit quarters in 2014.
