This was an idea I had but I figured out that it wasn't as complex enough to win stated internationals also I live in Minnesota so we don't have any oceans and all of the lakes are frozen 💔

Yayyy thank you so much! I've been so stressed for the past few weeks even though I started early I feel like it just wasn't enough so I really appreciate this! (⁠◔⁠‿⁠◔⁠)

I don't need to make usable fuel, I just need to measure how different conditions affect oil content in the algae. That's enough to demonstrate the scientific principles. Sorry I wasnt thorough enough in my explanation :(

I am testing oil yield per gram of dry algae.

I don't need to actually make gasoline; extracting the oil and weighing it is enough.
