The algae turn all this into 2 viable market products:
while cleaning the phosphorus from the water.
If you get lost in the science, don’t worry - I throw you a rescue line with a simple explanation of the whole system part-way through this conversation.
The implications of Carrine’s discovery are far-reaching -- I thoroughly enjoyed hearing about this discovery, where she might take it, and what other developments and technologies may eventually spring from it.
