Algae have the potential to produce large volumes of fuel per unit area of production on marginal lands using saline water unsuitable for food crops. Thus, algal biofuels could expand transportation energy supplies, without significantly displacing land and water resources that would otherwise have been used for food production.

The post-combustion outlet gas is more easily separated into water and CO 2 to the pipeline, thereby lowering the electricity costs of grids with high levels of VRE. UNO MK3 allows CO 2 to be withdrawn and stored as solid potassium bicarbonate during high energy demand, eliminating stripper energy and enabling profitable regeneration.
