MIT Algae Photobioreactor

This is a great example of Algae grown to produce bio fuel. This algae is pumped through clear tubes that is exposed to Sun Light. After a 24 hour cycle the algae is collected and the process starts all over again. They also make algae drinks and the suspended algae could even be eaten.

They collect the algae and make a booster powder and they can convert this inert substance to rid themselves of pollutants. Power plant operators pay money to have scrubbers installed to remove nitrogen oxides from smoke stacks. Down the road they could even introduce Algae as a primal choice to remove carbon dioxide.

Power plants could even produce there own algae to clean emissions, making it possible to have real clean coal burning plans without the expensive coal required to power those furnaces.
