▶ Usefulness of algae seen in the data.

Some algae species can lower pH to 9 in one day by cultivating algae in high pH effluents.
Ten days of cultivation can reduce pH even more.

▶ Usefulness of algae seen in the data.

Algae species with high carbon dioxide fixation ability hold more than 100times more carbon dioxide than Japanese cedar.
