Microbubbles Lead to More Efficient Algae Biofuel

(2)Jan-30-12

A new method of producing tiny bubbles in an algae solution could lead to more efficient methods of creating biofuel.

Removing the water from the algae is the main challenge in creating algae biofuel. The new microbubble method, created by the team from Sheffield University, causes the algae particles to float to the water's surface, using as much as 1000 times less energy than conventional methods.

Several major airlines have been investing in the use of algae biofuels, and the demand is expected to grow.
