Algae could grow into biofuels leader
News Headlines
While corn ethanol dominates the current biofuel market, the future of clean liquid-energy looks more likely to be found floating on ponds than growing in fields.
Algae-derived biofuels have garnered a lot of attention and investment over the past year due to their potential market-disrupting economics, even if they have become more common in research labs.

i've read a little about this subject and if it catches on it will be hard to stop because of its low cost and pretty much maintenance free way of growing it at least thats what i got out of the article i read now that i read this piece if it acts the sme as diesel wont it put the same so called polutions in the air as the diesel we use now

We'll have plenty of algea in the Gulf of Mexico after the oil is gone, cause it will be the first thing back and with nothing alive to eat it, it should be outta control in a few years.
As far as polution goes I'd bet on the same amountish as current fuels. One they probably won't refine it anymore than they have to, and two it's carbon based same as oil. i'm not sure which particular carbon chains either are but in the atmospher they probably would act similar.
