•The industries listed below can use algae for the secondary stage of wastewater treatment;
Meat and Poultry Pulp and Paper, and Produce (i.e., Fruits & Vegetable) Textiles Dyeing Metal Finishing Dyes & Pigments Pharmaceutical Food & Dairy Biotechnology Starch & Cellulose Chemicals Pesticides & Insecticides Photography Fertilizers
Agriculture & Farming
•Traditional crops – If farming companies grow algae for biodiesel, they can use the de-oiled algae extract as bio-fertilizer. •Algae farms – Existing algae farms can grow algae for fuel in addition to the end-product markets for which they are already cultivating algae.
Companies Producing Animal Waste;
•Many companies that produce large quantities of animal waste use the waste in digesters to produce methane, which in turn is used as a heating fuel. Using large quantities of methane gives out CO2 which can be used to grow algae. Algae can also grow in the liquid effluents released from the anaerobic digesters. The additional benefit these companies get is that they can use the de-oiled algae meal as animal feed.

Polluting Industries;
Industries that emit large amounts of CO2 during their operations can use algae for CO2 sequestration. They thus get two benefits: They are able to sequester CO2 cost-effectively, and they get a fuel feedstock.
Coal Burning and Natural Gas Power Plants;
Petrochemicals
Iron & Steel Cements Sugar Tyres Carbon Black Mining Aluminium Paper Inorganic Chemicals Fertilizers
Algae-based Products Manufacturers;
Many industries that use algae use primarily the protein component of the algae. For these companies, algae fuel in the form of biodiesel presents an interesting opportunity: these companies can extract the oil (lipid) from algae for biodiesel and can use the deoiled algae cake rich in proteins for their products. For those industries that use the lipids in algae, they can consider using the left-over biomass for producing fuels such as ethanol or other hydrocarbons.
Industries that currently use algae for their products are:
Biopolymers & Bioplastics Human Food & Food Supplements Animal & Fish Feed - Shrimp feed, Shellfish Diet, Marine Fish Larvae Cultivation Paints, Dyes and Colorants Lubricants Food & Nutraceuticals Cosmetics Agrochemicals Pharmaceuticals Antimicrobials, Antiviral & Antifungal Neuroprotective Products Slimming Related Products Anti-cellulite Skin Anti-ageing & Sensitive Skin Treatment
