13. Cleaning water swamps with micro algae technology. Feat Jaime Gutierrez, entrepreneur and PhD on Biological Sciencies.

On this episode of Mizter Rad Show, host Mizter Rad interviews Jaime Gutierrez, an entrepreneur and PhD in biological sciences. Gutierrez discusses his work exploring microalgae as a solution for tertiary treatment of water. He explains that bacteria, the most common treatment system for water treatment in Europe, produce toxic waste that must be disposed of, making the process environmentally unsustainable. Gutierrez proposes microalgae as a more sustainable solution that doesn't produce toxic waste. The episode also covers Gutierrez's successful project using microalgae to decontaminate swamps around a poor fishing village in Colombia, and his work promoting local production of microalgae for use as a biofertilizer and in biorefineries. Finally, the episode discusses the potential for using sewage from all over the world to culture microalgae, capture carbon dioxide, and produce energy.
