Sequestration of CO(2) by halotolerant algae

The potential of halotolerant algae isolated from natural resources was used to study CO(2) fixation and algal lipid production. Biological fixation of CO(2) in photobioreactor in presence of salinity is exploited. The CO(2) concentration 1060 ppm gave the highest biomass yield (700 mg dry wt/l), th...

description The potential of halotolerant algae isolated from natural resources was used to study CO(2) fixation and algal lipid production. Biological fixation of CO(2) in photobioreactor in presence of salinity is exploited. The CO(2) concentration 1060 ppm gave the highest biomass yield (700 mg dry wt/l), the highest total lipid content (10.33%) with 80% of CO(2) removal.
