Combining Algae and Oyster Shells for Biodiesel Born in the Bayou Newswise — ATLANTA, March 25, 2026 — Biodiesel is a renewable fuel and offers a sustainable and potentially carbon-neutral alternative to petroleum products. Yet production costs remain a hurdle to its widespread use. Now, researchers have developed an inexpensive way to make biodiesel from materials found along the banks of their Louisiana bayou: algae and oyster shells. The researchers will present their results at the spring meeting of the American Chemical Society (ACS). ACS Spring 2026 is being held March 22-26; it features nearly 11,000 presentations on a range of science topics. Biodiesel is manufactured and used around the world, but its production is not without challenges. The plants, such as soy and rapeseed, that provide the initial oils require vast areas of land that could otherwise be used for food crops, and in some regions, expanding farms can damage and destroy valuable natural ecosystems. Production can also be expensive because of the high cost of components such as calcium oxide-based catalysts. These two challenges were key motivators for Bello Makama and his research group at Nicholls State University, who turned to their local environment for solutions. From a ditch near the lab, they harvested algae rather than traditional crops...

For anyone in the US who uses #biodiesel fuel, what are you paying now for the #fuel? What have #FuelPrices done over the last week in your area, and what state/territory are you in? I'm in #California, and my pump price has gone from $4.69/gal to $6.49/gal in the last week. It makes zero sense […]
