Concern about C02 has generated much research into how best to remove the anthropogenic portion of that greenhouse gas from the atmosphere. Previous research into the use of algae and related organisms to remove CO2 from stack gases while generating biofuel has been revivified and has undergird numerous pilot or commercial efforts that are now operating. Basics of algae for biodiesel generation will be explained and some approaches compared.
