The City of Altamonte Springs is piloting technology that it says could help solve the renewable energy crisis by transforming raw materials into fuel for cars, jets, trucks and more.

Frank Martz, City Manager, Altamonte Springs
The city is working with infrastructure consulting firm AECOM and water technology company Genifuel to showcase the use of hydrothermal processing (HTP) to turn harmful algae and wastewater biosolids into carbon-neutral biocrude oil and biogas.

The demonstration is taking place at the Altamonte Springs Regional Water Reclamation Facility.

The city says it is the first in Florida and the third in the US to trial the technology.
