Wastewater-Grown Algae Yield Biodiesel and Clean the Water, Too

Finding new methods of processing wastewater really impresses me every time. Using a combination of wastewater and algae to produce biodiesel is even more touching, because it's "doubly green", as the algae neutralize water pathogens as they feed and eat out carbon dioxide to produce fuel.

An Idea to Naturally Harvest Algae for Biofuels By Using Stable Ocean Currents

Here's an interesting idea to cultivate algae that could be transformed into biodiesel. The basic idea is that people should use the stable currents that exist in the Pacific ocean to carry algae from one point to another, time during which the algae should mature with the ocean's support and some slowly-dissolving nutrients that should float along with them.
