Algenol’s Algae-to-Ethanol Delivers 67% to 87% Reduction in CO2
Photo: Algenol Compared to Gasoline Algenol is working on making ethanol from algae in photobioreactors connected to power plants. Like with all types of biofuels, the most important question with algae-ethanol has always been: Is it really greener than fossil fuels? And if so, how much? A team from Algenol and Georgia Tech tried to answer that question by doing a life cycle analysis (LCA) on the whole process of making Algenol’s ethanol, and the results were published as an open access paper in the ACS journal Environmental Science & Technology . … Read the full story on TreeHugger
