Algae based fire resistant materials and method of making same

摘要

A process for manufacturing fire resistant materials comprising the steps of recovering an alga having a mineral component wherein said alga is selected form the group consisting of Chara algae and Cladophora algae; mixing said algae with water to form an aqueous mixture; mixing a chlorine based solution to the mixture to kill the algae and any bacteria and to form an algae-based product; separating the algae-based product from the aqueous mixture; and recovering the algae-based product from the surface of the mixture.
