Klobucar is a law grad of Franklin Pierce (now University of New Hampshire School of Law ) and is co-author of the paper
Patent Landscape of Algae Biodiesel: Applicable Genetic Engineering Technologies. University of New Hampshire School of Law Educational Report (2011)
Of some relevance to this is the paper: Matthew R Preiss and Stanley P Kowalski, Algae and Biodiesel: Patenting Energized as Green Goes Commercial, 16 J. Comm. Biotech. 293 (2010)
Also of some relevance is T. J. Lundquist et al., "A Realistic Technology and Engineering Assessment of Algae Biofuel Production," [link: http://www.qibebt.cas.cn/xscbw/yjbg/201012/P020101216508997822989.pdf ]
which in turn cites to an abstract by J. T. Hauck, "Effects of simulated flue gas on growth of microalgae," from the 212th National ACS meeting.
