More biofuel potential
While we’re on the subject of alternative power plants: WebEcoist has posted a rundown of 15 cutting-edge biofuels. Pretty exciting stuff. As mentioned before, the Freshkills Park site already harvests natural gas from decomposing waste, but we’re interested in developing the site’s capacity to generate energy from other biomass, too. From the standard to the visionary, we’re looking into options and open to suggestions.
Meanwhile, lots more on algae-based biofuels on the Wikipedia page.
