University of Delaware researchers have identified an algae— Heterosigma akashiwo —that grows rapidly on a gas mixture that has the same carbon dioxide and nitric oxide (NO) content as emissions released from a power plant. That alone could save up to 45% of the required energy input to grow algae for biofuels, Coyne said.

A recently released total fuel cycle analysis for maritime case studies shows that natural gas fuels reduce some air quality pollutants substantially, and reduce major greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions slightly, when compared to conventional petroleum-based marine fuels (low-sulfur and high-sulfur). This is an important consideration.

We’ve already seen this week how algae can help clean sewage waste while at the same time producing fuel cars, but now we’re discovering how these microscopic organisms can also help clean up pollution from other forms of power production. According to new research from University of Delaware, one[.]. Biofuels'

Globally, commercial ships emit almost half as much particulate matter pollutants into the air as the total amount released by the world’s cars, according to a new study led by NOAA and the University of Colorado at Boulder. Ship pollutants affect local air quality and the health of people living along coastlines.
