【Algae energy】藻類燃料
發佈日期：2012年9月5日
As America takes steps to improve our energy security, home-grown fuel sources are more important that ever. One of the fuel sources of the future is algae, small aquatic organisms that convert sunlight into energy and store it in the form of oil. Scientists and engineers at the Energy Department and its national laboratories are researching the best strains of algae and developing the most efficient farming practices. This edition of Energy 101 shows how oil is extracted from algae and refined into sustainable biofuels.
由于美国采取措施来改善我们的能源安全，土生土长的燃料来源更为重要的是，永远。一个未来的燃料来源是藻类，小的水生生物将太阳光转化为能量，并存储在油的形式。科学家和工程师在美国能源部和国家实验室正在研究藻类的最好的菌株和发展最有效的耕作方式。能源101本版说明如何油是从海藻中提取并精制成可持续的生物燃料。
