A research team led by The University of Texas at Austin has been awarded approximately $58 million to analyze methane hydrate deposits under the Gulf of Mexico. Methane hydrate—natural gas trapped in an ice-like cage of water molecules—occurs in both terrestrial and marine environments. —Peter Flemings.

A new $1-million relationship between Michigan State University and ExxonMobil will expand research designed to progress the fundamental science required to advance algae-based fuels. We know certain types of algae produce bio-oils. The challenge is to find and develop algae that can produce bio-oils at scale on a cost-efficient basis.

The team will begin working with marine algae called Dunaliella , which grow in brackish or salty water. We’re looking at microscopic marine algae that produce fatty acids and do not have a cell wall. It’s easy to be cost-competitive when oil is at $300 a barrel, but it’s harder when the price of oil drops. Earlier post.)

Recycling Technologies is industrializing a process—originally developed at the University of Warwick (UK)—to convert residual plastic waste into a low-sulfur hydrocarbon compound called Plaxx. Plaxx is created from residual mixed plastic waste that is not amenable to direct recycling and would otherwise go to landfill.

The study found that the dominant microbe in the dispersed Gulf of Mexico oil plume was a new species, closely related to members of Oceanospirillales family. Based on these results, the research team suggests that the potential exists for intrinsic bioremediation of the oil plume in the deep-water column without substantial oxygen drawdown.
