Carbon utilization efficiency in marine algae biofuel production systems through loss minimization and carbonate chemistry modification

Summary

The challenge addressed is the need to improve carbon utilization efficiency in marine algae biofuel production to enhance productivity and lower costs, facilitating commercialization. The project developed and tested processes to convert CO2 into dissolved bicarbonate for algae growth, optimizing CO2 requirements for top strains at laboratory and commercial scales. The project has been completed, successfully demonstrating an end-to-end process from strain assessment to integration with industrial waste CO2, paving the way for more efficient and cost-effective algae biofuel production.
