Algae is the fastest growing plant on the planet, and I meant it can
reproduce itself 2 x per day in a closed system, that's not breaking any
laws of thermodynamics

no, algae needs sunlight, but it's growth cycle is 2x per day or higher,
so
the fact that it slows down to nothing during the night time is not
really a
factor.
I think you could also argue that if you're able to produce biodiesel
from
algae at ridiculous rates per day, you could afford to run diesel-powered
lighting at very low cost, increasing the yield even higher.
You never even made it to the 2nd Law. That's a clear violation of
the 1st law of thermodynamics.
