A system for biofuel farming in arid coastal areas is at present under investigation in a cooperative European project. The biomass production is based on seawater which is pumped through shallow artificial ponds. Due to the high productivity of phytoplankton, easy fermentation to methane, and complete mineral nutrients recycling, the net energy balance (output/input) is expected to be 14 for methane and 7 for methanol, respectively. Since no fertile land or fresh water is needed, there is no competition with food production on arable land. Such a system is entirely self-contained energy-wise, which makes it attractive for remote desert areas and developing countries.
