New Mexico State University researching biodiesel made from Algae

“The oil produced from algae will process into biodiesel as easily as oil obtained from land-based crops,” said a news release from CEHMM. “Algae is now considered to be one of the most critical components in alleviating the need for foreign oil. This does not, however, eliminate the likelihood of other oil-based feedstocks from being investigated. CEHMM is also collaborating with the Artesia Science Center on a project focused on the potential of growing a cold-season canola crop to generate oil for biodiesel production.”
