History
Texas Clean Fuels is a technology and equipment provider in the alternative energy industry, which is focused specifically on providing technology and equipment for the mass production of algae biomass as a feedstock for various different fuel and other applications.
TCF is based on a series of patent applications by its Founder, Jonathan L. Gal, who first became interested in the concept of fuel from Micro Organisms while working as a lab technician in a vaccine development group at the National Institutes of Health.
To those who don't know much about microorganisms, vaccines, and/or fuel development, the connection between vaccine development and fuel production may not seem clear at first. Those with even a basic background in Biology, photosynthesis, and/or fuel development will see the connection more clearly.
While supporting the development of human vaccines against various microorganisms, Jonathan noticed that the primary immunogenic target of many vaccine candidates is the lipid molecules on the surface of the micro organisms. Such lipids come in a large variety of different types, but they share a common characteristic: an abundance of long chain carbon molecules that contain numerous, high energy carbon-carbon bonds.
When carbon-carbon bonds are combusted (ie: burned), a large amount of energy is released, which can be utlized by a variety of modern engines, including most importantly, various kinds of transportation engines that power everyday cars, trucks, buses, boats, ships, motorcycles, power plants, and etc. In fact, long chain carbon molecules go by another name in the energy industry: 'hydrocarbons'. 'Hydrocarbons' is another name for the category of molecules known more commonly as "oils" or "crude oil".
