Summary:
A short overview of why algae is a great choice for alternative fuels and their production. Emphasizes current research, development, and known uses for it, as well as how it compares to some other alternatives such as ethanol and biodiesel.

Details or Sample:
Some common questions about the use of algae as an alternative biofuel source regard the already relatively wide-scale production and use of other biofuels like ethanol, soy biodiesel, and similar products. These are good questions and must be answered.

Most of these biofuel sources use existing food crops (called “feedstock” in the industry) to create fuels. In other words, they remove these feedstocks from the grocery shelves in favor of making fuels out of them. In the case of corn alone, this has meant a marked increase in the price of corn in world markets. It means less corn on the dinner table. Corn is a staple food in this country and is not easily replaced as such. Soy, on the other hand, is a “background” feedstock used as filler in animal feeds, vegetable oils, and more.
