Daphne wastewater-to-fuel pilot
2014 pilot report · Regeneration and living systems · Documented · Publicly accessible evidence
Algae Systems and Daphne Utilities built a demonstration plant at Mobile Bay, Alabama. The plant grew microalgae on municipal wastewater, then used hydrothermal liquefaction to convert the wet biomass into biocrude. This was the team’s later pilot.
