Results of a 14-week study by Rice University researchers suggest that algae monocultures for biofuel feedstock can be grown in open tank bioreactors using municipal wastewater as a nutrient source. The results of this pilot experiment are not equivalent to establishing long-term, large-scale, commercial efforts. 2015.30.1.067.

About 85% of the CO 2 from the process stream will be captured and over 5 million tons sequestered into a depleted oil or gas field. C6 Resources, an affiliate of Shell Oil Company, will conduct the project in collaboration with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. University of Utah.
