Research Reports from University of California Provide New Insights into Photobioreactors

2012 JAN 23 -- Fresh data on Photobioreactors are presented in the report "Diffusion-based process for carbon dioxide uptake and isoprene emission in gaseous/aqueous two-phase photobioreactors by photosynthetic microorganisms." According to the authors of recent research from Berkeley, California, "Photosynthesis for the generation of fuels and chemicals from cyanobacteria and microalgae offers the promise of a single host organism acting both as photocatalyst and processor, performing sunlight absorption and utilization, as well as CO(2) assimilation and conversion into product. However, there is a need to develop methods for generating, sequestering, and trapping such...
