Dr. Richard Sayre, one of the nation’s leading biofuels researchers, has been named director of the Enterprise Rent-A-Car Institute for Renewable Fuels at the Danforth Plant Science Center in St. Louis. Dr. Sayre’s work will focus on using algae to produce “3rd-generation” biofuels for possible future large scale energy use.
Some attributes of algae as a biofuel source:
• Algae have a high energy density, the same as conventional diesel fuel
• Algae-based fuel emits far fewer greenhouse gases than gasoline.
• In fact, the production process actually removes CO2 from the atmosphere.

Feel free to shoot back any questions.
