| MIT Algae Photobioreactor |
 |
An algae photobioreactor on the roof of MIT
university.
The clear polycarbonate tubes are approx 3 meters
high, and 10-20 centimeters in diameter.
It removes upto 86% of the NOx and 40% of the CO2
of the smokestack emissions that are bubbled
through it. The algae are feeding on exhaust with
13% CO2 content. This size algae photobioreactor
can't handle the entire exhaust emissions, it
would need to be much larger for that.
This photobioreactor you see here on the roof of
MIT, has since been dismantled and reassembled in
Naboomspruit (now called Mookgopong) South Africa
at a biodiesel plant.
