BIOblogger: A1: So. CA water "wars" are common over Colorado River. North / South CA tug-o-war is fixture of statewide politics. #biochat
-
TruffleMedia: #biochat a1: In developing countries, are the issues getting to the water or getting it clean?
-
ScipioBiofuels: A1: W/ watertables dropping cleaning up what is all over the SW US in small pockets seems a good idea. #biochat

-
ScipioBiofuels: A2: I believe greywater can be used for our algae production process though this has not been tested specifically. #biochat
-
TruffleMedia: #biochat a2: are energy crops = sugar cane, corn, etc. or is this about different kind of energy crops?

BIOblogger: A2: Graywater may contain pathogens although not as bad as sewage. Should be filtered. More R&D req'd. http://bit.ly/exi5Ek #biochat
-
Sean_OHanlon: A2: I think that treated wastewater can and should be used to irrigate energy crops. That process increases bioremediation. #biochat

Sean_OHanlon: @TruffleMedia We mean any biomass/crop that isn't used for human consumption. #biochat
-
BIOblogger: A2: Algae & treatment ponds can be used to filter graywater. #biochat
-
ScipioBiofuels: A2: Water hyacinth appears to work the best for cleaning greywater. Difficult to control however. #biochat
-
BIOblogger: A2: "Energy crops" do not include cultivated food crops. Switchgrass, miscanthus, arundo donax, sorghum are energy crops. #biochat
-
TruffleMedia: @bioblogger #biochat a2: Is graywater treatment before ag use common in any countries?
-
Biochat: Q3: What natural processes can be used to clean contaminated water? #biochat #WorldWaterDay
-
Sean_OHanlon: @BIOblogger Exactly, First #Algae, then duckweed, and then sugar cane or some other bioenergy crop. #biochat

Sean_OHanlon: RT @Biochat: Q3: What natural processes can be used to clean contaminated water? #biochat #WorldWaterDay
-
ScipioBiofuels: A3: a process where contaminants match trace elements needed by a given species of plant. Then grown for cellulosic ethanol #biochat
-
Sean_OHanlon: A3: We can use #Algae and/or #Biochar to clean contaminated #water of chemicals and biological agents. #biochat
-
ScipioBiofuels: A3: When done appropriately this idea makes a comprehensive system for bioremediation. #biochat

BIOblogger: A3: #Biochar ("terra preta") a soil amendment, could substitute for activated charcoal for water filtration. #biochat
-
TruffleMedia: #biochat many of the #agchat ppl will probably come in at 8pm EDT

-
TruffleMedia: Thx for definition :) P RT @BIOblogger A2 Energy crops not include cultivated food crops. ... #biochat
-
ScipioBiofuels: @TruffleMedia Yes, I was part of a research project that figured out how to do that in 2002. #biochat
-
Sean_OHanlon: @TruffleMedia Absolutely, Think of it like a giant fish tank that has a sand and charcoal filtration system. #biochat

ScipioBiofuels: @Sean_OHanlon @TruffleMedia Sean did you read http://blogs.fanbox.com/howtostopclimatechange ? Your fish tank idea is close. #biochat
-
TruffleMedia: #biochat A3: so natural processes means using natural materials in man made systems to transform water purity (?)
-
Sean_OHanlon: @ScipioBiofuels I've been involved in a number research projects that developed various ways of cleaning water to drinkable levels. #biochat
-
ScipioBiofuels: @TruffleMedia A3: Yes, natural processes in carefully chosen applications to transform water and even watershed eutrophism #biochat
-
ScipioBiofuels: @Sean_OHanlon Our development work was targeted for a "worst case" of Lake Elsinore in Ca. It isn't overnight, but it is thorough #biochat

-
ScipioBiofuels: Q5: Would you incorporate #algae tech and/or hydroponics to handle nutrient runoff if there was an ongoing ROI? #WorldWaterDay #biochat
-
Sean_OHanlon: @TruffleMedia That's one way to do it or it can be done through a tiered system such as Algae/ duckweed/ Biochar/ grasses. #biochat

-
ScipioBiofuels: A5: We have a plan for using such water if located appropriately for either standard or vertical farms at our facilities in future #biochat
-
TruffleMedia: #biochat A5: Yes, if I knew how to calculate ROI for using #algae tech? What would be some key ROI considerations?
-
ScipioBiofuels: @TruffleMedia ROI considerations = type of production pond vs PBR, all biofuel or a mix with nutriceutical algae etc. #biochat
-
Sean_OHanlon: RT @TruffleMedia: #biochat A5: Yes, if I knew how to calculate ROI for using #algae tech? What would be some key ROI considerations?
-
ScipioBiofuels: @TruffleMedia the considerations are the same for any manufacturing business. We are only in need of the values of the variables #biochat
-
Sean_OHanlon: @TruffleMedia I think most of the #Algae ROI for farmers will come from feed for livestock and fertilizer. #biochat
-
Biochat: Q6: What financing and technology for developing countries is being deployed to address #Water issues? #biochat #WorldWaterDay
-
TruffleMedia: #biochat A5 are there commercial #algae tech systems for use? Who are major vendors?
-
ScipioBiofuels: RT @Sean_OHanlon: @TruffleMedia I think most of the #Algae ROI for farmers will come from feed for livestock & fertilizer - I agree #biochat
-
ScipioBiofuels: RT @TruffleMedia: #biochat A5 are there commercial #algae tech systems for use? Who are major vendors? #biochat
-
ScipioBiofuels: @ScipioBiofuels @TruffleMedia Commercial systems? We should discuss that seperately. #biochat
-
Sean_OHanlon: @TruffleMedia There are a few companies that have developed applications suitable for farming conditions. PetroAlgae is one. #biochat
