Improving the sunlight-to-biomass conversion efficiency in microalgal biofactories.

Journal of biotechnology - 10 May 2015

Wobbe Lutz, Remacle Claire

Abstract excerpt

Microalgae represent promising organisms for the sustainable production of commodities, chemicals or fuels. Future use of such systems, however, requires increased productivity of microalgal mass cultures in order to reach an economic viability for microalgae-based production schemes. The efficiency of sunlight-to-biomass conversion that can be observed in bulk cultures is generally far lower (35-80%) than the...
