Abstract:The U.S. Department of Transportation Maritime Administration (MARAD) and Maryland Department of Transportation Maryland Port Administration (MDOT MPA), through a cooperative agreement, provided funding for the Integrated Algal Flow-Way, Digester, and Fuel Cell Demonstration Project (demonstration project) at Dundalk Marine Terminal (DMT) in Baltimore, Maryland. This demonstration project is the first of its kind to link an algal flow-way1 with an algal digester that produces biogas to fuel a fuel cell. The fuel cell provides power for lights at the site and a small flowway recirculation pump. This project successfully demonstrated the use of innovative technologies in a marine industrial environment and supported MDOT MPA’s commitment to the environment to improve water quality, reduce air emissions, and incorporate alternative energy sources.
