Vega Biofuels, Inc. Information

Vega Biofuels Inc. (OTC: VGPR) states that it is a renewable energy company focused on the production and sale of biofuel products throughout the world. The Company markets two products, Bio-coal and a soil enhancement called Biochar. Bio-coal is produced using technology called torrefaction. Torrefaction is a partial carbonization process at temperatures between 475 - 575°F in a low oxygen environment. The torrefaction process eliminates undesirable volatiles, such as nitrous oxides and sulfur dioxides in the Bio-coal, which is carbon neutral to the environment. On November 17th Vega Biofuels Inc. announced that it has filed a Provisional Patent Application for its generation four (G4) torrefaction machine. Vega recently announced that its G/4 torrefaction machine increases the manufacturing capacity. The company claims that portions of the process for the new machine are unique in the current marketplace and therefore, filed the Provisional Patent Application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office under the title "Method and Apparatus for Torrefying Biomass. According to the patent, the new machine includes a pre-dryer that partially dries the biomass prior to the torrefaction process.
