Study of macro algae as marine biomass energy source
Algae are organisms that grow in aquatic environments using the light and carbon dioxide (CO2) to create biomass. Macro algae are larger algae that can grow in a variety of ways. Algae can be explored for a variety of other uses such as biofuels, fertilizer and pollution control. In addition, algae...

| Summary: | Algae are organisms that grow in aquatic environments using the light and carbon dioxide (CO2) to create biomass. Macro algae are larger algae that can grow in a variety of ways. Algae can be explored for a variety of other uses such as biofuels, fertilizer and pollution control. In addition, algae can also be used for reducing the emissions of CO2 from power plants. CO2 produced by the power plant could be utilized as a carbon source for algal growth, and the carbon emissions would be reduced by recycling waste CO2 from power plants into clean-burning biodiesel. |
