Researchers Use Algae to Treat Wastewater and Generate Biofuel

Algae is much more than that pesky goo in your fish tank - researchers at theRochester Institute of Technology are now using algae grown at wastewater treatment plants to synthesize biodiesel. Wastewater treatment plants regularly utilize algae to remove ammonia, nitrates and phosphates from wastewater before dumping into receiving water - using the tiny plants as a source of fuel is a brilliant way to get extra mileage out of the system....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/researchers-use-algae-to-treat-wastewater-and-generate-biofuel/'>READ ARTICLE</a>
