Algae Used to Mitigate Carbon Dioxide Emissions

Greenshift Industrial Design Corporation (GIDC) has acquired technology that uses a blue-green algae that grows in the environment of hot flue gases found in smokestack. The algae uses photosynthesis to combine water and the CO2 in the flue gas to grow additional algae and form oxygen and water vapor. The organisms also absorb nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxide, which contribute to acid rain.
