The University of Georgia bionrefinery is researching algae as a form of biofuel. They are focused on algae production, harvesting and conversion to produce the highest efficiency biofuel.
Algae is tested in the laboratory in a light chamber.
Algae beakers are kept in a refrigerated closet at the biorefinery center. Different types of algae are being tested for their productivity.Vertical reactors holding different types of microalgae are kept in a greenhouse at the biorefinery.
Algae is grown on a vertical slope with water running down it, testing the most effective production methods.
