Do you know that oil derived from algae is an exciting renewable fuel possibility? - see Oilgae for more.

Species of Fish for Producing Nitrates for Algae

The following was a question posed at the Oil from Algae yahoogroup:

Question: How many, and what species of fish would produce the amount of Nitrates necessary to grow substantial algae for on-farm usage?

There was one interesting answer: Fish and Algae won't go together. Algae is their food.

However, Bobby Yates Emory had this to say: The fish eat algae and their waste feeds the growth of more algae. The talipa(SP?) is harvested for food and for sale.

Nature gave us oil from algae; perhaps we should try Nature's way again

About Oilgae - Oilgae - Oil & Biodiesel from Algae has a focus on biodiesel production from algae while also discussing alternative energy in general. Algae present an exciting possibility as a feedstock for biodiesel, and when you realise that oil was originally formed from algae - among other related plants - you think "Hey! Why not oil again from algae!"
