The Challenge I Chose for my Experiment

Land Ahoy!


In the TED Talks, Mr. Trent talked about growing algae taking up a lot of land and the design of the photobioreactors (PBR).  I want to create a more efficient PBR that will create more algae with less space.

Example of the Floating PBR Pods in the San Francisco Bay



The PBR system pictured above would theoretically produce 2 million gallons of bio-fuel per year, which is 20% of the diesel used in San Francisco.
