Industrial waste heat and CO2 to enhance co-production of biodiesel and nutraceuticals from microalgae

与工业合作伙伴Xstrata Nickel和AIS合作的一个项目，利用工业废气中的余热和二氧化碳(CO2)来培养微藻。微藻可以生产清洁燃烧的生物柴油，被认为是一种很有前途的可再生生物燃料。由于有毒排放非常低，生物柴油的一个潜在市场是作为地下采矿设备的替代燃料。微藻也可以是高价值天然保健营养产品的来源，包括抗氧化剂和omega 3脂肪酸。

A program with industrial partners Xstrata Nickel and AIS on the use of waste heat and carbon dioxide (CO2) in industrial off-gas to grow microalgae. Microalgae can produce clean burning biodiesel, which is regarded as a very promising renewable biofuel. Due to very low toxic emissions, one potential market for biodiesel is as a replacement fuel for underground mining equipment. Microalgae can be also a source of high-value natural health nutraceutical products, including antioxidants and omega 3 fatty acids.
