Algae Biodiesel on CNET

The technology website CNET.com mentioned Algae Biodiesel in a short segment. Considering that Algae grows quickly, is carbon neutral and the fuel (biodiesel) being produced will run in the most efficient internal combusion engines we currently use, this could well be the best alternative to petroleum.

actually they get more energy out of the process then what you put in (about 103%)

People, do your research, this is very doable. On a side note? why does everyone shoot down every single idea like its worthless when pretty much every alternative fuel source is viable??? Yes, most are not practical, but everything starts somewhere, and algae fuel is a good idea.

Oh, there's a lot of hidden problems within the process but the main constraint is lowering the cost of the production so that they can sell the oil that is affordable. Heck, growing the algae itself poses a problem. How are you going to do it cheaply? Find a pond and build a plant next to it? (Will the government even *let* you do that?) Build your own artificial tank - (if yes, where are you going to find a big enough plot of land cheaply) and etc. That's just the tip of the iceberg.

It seems simple; 1) grow algae 2) harvest algae3) dry algae4) put dry algae in to oil seedpress5) turn oil from seedpress into biodieselwhat is the problem?

hmmm. directed evolution.....
For those considering buying a new vehicle, don't forget to check out the new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Great for adventures off road, just for cruising around town, or running to the store.

The new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser seats five and comes in two-tone with a Voodoo Blue, Titanium Metallic, Black Diamond, Sun Fusion, Sandstorm or Brick body color and White top. The interior fabric color is Dark Charcoal, while the dash, center instrument panel trim and the door inserts match the body.
