TEDxVideos- NASA's Green Lab Research Facility

NASAs Green Lab Research Facility solves problems of food, fuel and water:

•97.5 percent of water is saline and remaining percentage is fresh water. NO freshwater is used in the research

•NO arable land

•NO chemical fertilizers, instead all that is used is fish waste which is rich in nitrogen content.

•The lab uses halophytes and algae to generate bio-fuels which could be used for bio-fuel production. The bio-fuels in the lab are meant to act as the next generation aviation fuel.

Pond Biofuels 's Algae Biofuel Project

Toronto based Pond Biofuels has a pilot plant which uses the smoke from St.Marys Cement Plant for CO2 sequestration by the algae which in turn produces triglycerides. These can then be converted to biodiesel. Watch the video for a on-site tour around the plant.
