Henderson Station Two Power Plant to Try Algae for CO2 Capture

The city’s Station Two power plant near Sebree could become the latest site for research into whether algae could hold some hope for capturing and recycling carbon dioxide emissions.
The Henderson Utility Commission earlier this week gave conditional approval to allowing University of Kentucky researchers to set up a small photobioreactor at Station Two.
Station Two releases more than 2.6 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere each year, according to UK. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas blamed for global warming. Increasing attention is being paid to reducing or capturing the gas emissions.
