Just send a factory ship out and harvest it! The plastics that have collected on the oceans might be a resource one day too! Oil barons beware, we are going to win! The Sargasso sea is huge!

Any interest and exchanging information will be wellcomed by me. My company (NoriTech- seaweeds biotechnologiea ltd.) is dealing with growing Nori in ponds on land and we can also grow several other seaweeds for the purpos of BioFuel.

Think we could make one 24x as big? 48,000 square feet? How efficient is it compared to microalgae?

They claim a farm of this scale could produce about 20 million kiloliters (5.3 billion gallons) of bioethanol per year, which is equivalent to one-third the 60 million kiloliters (16 billion gallons) of gasoline that Japan consumes each year.Source [...] […] Researchers from Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology, Mitsubishi Research Institute, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and several other private-sector firms envision a 10,000 square kilometer (3,860 square mile) seaweed farm at Yamatotai, a shallow fishing area in the middle of the Sea of Japan.

Even Japan's area is 150,000 square miles. 4,000 sq. mi. is quite large, but in relative terms it's tiny, especially compared the cropland that would be required to produce an equivalent amount of ethanol on land.

At first I was thinking this was interesting, not yet imagining the land mass but just take a look at any map and glance at the mi/km key. Freaking insane!
