alge are small lifeforms that feed on plants but if dead they produce a chemical called bionamh that kills nearbouring lifeforms so if used as a fuel it is greener helps the environment and saves and creates new species. ;)

How can algae be used as a fuel source?

Algae fuel is any fuel made using algae. Algae are a type of simple organism, of which most are photosynthetic (they get their energy from the sun). The smallest algae are unicellular, the largest are the seaweeds that make up kelp forests. Some types of algae use sunlight to make oil, and if these algae are harvested and the oil extracted from them, the oil can be used in a variety of ways, including as a replacement for petroleum derived diesel fuel. Whatever portion of the algae which is not oil, is carbohydrates and proteins. These carbohydrates and proteins can be processed to produce butanol, a oily, energy-dense alcohol, which can be used as a direct gasoline substitute. The oil from algae can also be converted (using the same processes that are used on petroleum) into other types of fuel, such as biogasoline, and aviation biofuel. The non-oil components of algae can also be converted to other fuels besides butanol (although that's one of the most valuable producable fuels), such as methane and ethanol.

Can algae grow in diesel fuel?

No. Algae need sunlight to grow. Old truck drivers and uninformed people will insist they are growing algae in their fuel tanks. Most of the time it's a microbial colony growing between the water contaminated tank and the diesel fuel.
