    algae for jet fuel

    As a Fertilizer – from as long ago as the 16th century, seaweed has been used a fertilizer.

    As a source of Nutrition – China has been consuming Algae for over 2000 years, they harvest over 70 species as does Japan, Ireland, Chile, Wales,Korea, California, New Zealand, Hawaii, Scotland, Greenland and Iceland to name a few. It was an ingredient in Aztec foods.

    Oils obtained from some algae  have high levels of unsaturated fatty acids,others essential omega 3 fatty acids.

    As a Pollution control –  treating sewage with algae, reducing the use of toxic chemicals that would be used. They can absorb fertilizer run off from fields. Aquariums can be filtered by algae

    As a Pigment  – alternative to chemical dyes
