K. (2001). The world of caffeine: The science and culture of the world's most popular drug. New York: Routledge, p. xii.

Original source material: A team of chemical engineers has developed a method for converting common algae into butanol, a renewable fuel that can be used in existing combustible engines.

These attributes are in addition to the advantages gleaned from butanol's source. Unlike corn, algae are not in demand by the food industry. Furthermore, it can be grown virtually anywhere and thus does not require large tracts of valuable farmland. University of Arkansas, Fayetteville. (2011, March 2).
