Answer to Question 1

Methods for separating algae from the watery mix are filtration, centrifugation, flotation, and flocculation

Note the first printing inadvertently asked for five methods, only four were listed in the text, so this will be corrected in the next printing.

Answer to Question 2

The steps in cultivating and processing algae are cultivation and growth, separation from the water mix, and extraction of oil.
