CO₂ bio-mitigation using microalgae

Microalgae are a group of unicellular or simple multicellular photosynthetic microorganisms that can fix CO₂ efficiently from different sources, including the atmosphere, industrial exhaust gases, and soluble carbonate salts. Combination of CO₂ fixation, biofuel production, and wastewater treatment...

Zusammenfassung:	Microalgae are a group of unicellular or simple multicellular photosynthetic microorganisms that can fix CO₂ efficiently from different sources, including the atmosphere, industrial exhaust gases, and soluble carbonate salts. Combination of CO₂ fixation, biofuel production, and wastewater treatment may provide a very promising alternative to current CO₂ mitigation strategies.
