What is it about?
Fuel can be made from algae and bacteria, with much lower land use than other biofuels. To grow well in a compact space it needs more CO2 than it can get from the air on its own. Capturing CO2 from power plants or other sources can work. But, for this algae fuel to "low carbon" the process of capturing the CO2 and making the fuel has to be very efficient. We examine a bunch of different ways to set this up.
