dl Photosynthesis & photosynthetic efficiency: Photosynthesic efficiencies in algae mass cultures

Author: Jürgen Polle, Brooklyn College of the City of New York, USA

Description: Productivities of mass cultures of algae depend on the ability of the cells to use photons for the process of photosynthesis. To maximize productivity a variety of biological and/or engineering approaches were explored in the past. This talk will focus on the limitations in algae bioproductivities and on exploring what could be achieved when both cellular engineering and reactor optimization approaches would be optimized. 

 

 

dl Microalgae as food and feed and cosmetics: Industrial application of of microalgae in food, feed and cosmetics

Author: Claudia Grewe, Salata GmbH, Germany

Description: Microalgae are the oldest plants on earth and at the same time on of the newest trends in biotechnology. Apart from their great variety in shape, habitats and produced chemicals the reasons for the great interests in those organisms are manifold: they fix the climate gas carbon dioxide, produce economically valuable substances in a sustainable way and represent one of the most unexploited natural sources of organisms...

 

 

dl Photosynthesis & photosynthetic efficiency: Photosynthesis- The key process to achieve highest bio-productivity

Author: Jens Rupprecht, MPI Golm, Germany

Description: Concomitant with increasing demand of energy our reserves of fossil fuels, our main energy sources (accounting for around 80% of our total energy shares), are depleting. Moreover burning fossil fuels causes severe damages on our environment. Consequently sustainable, CO2 emission-free energy sources are required urgently...

 

 

dl Photosynthesis & photosynthetic efficiency: Biorefinery of Microalgae

Author: Rene Wijffels, Wageningen University, Netherlands

Description: The feasibility of microalgae production for biodiesel will be discussed. Although algae are not yet produced at large scale for bulk applications there are opportunities to develop this process in a sustainable way...

 

 

dl Photobioreactors: Hydrodynamics of assessment of photobioreactors

Author: Clemens Posten, University Karlsruhe, Germany

Description: Photobioreactors are far from being optimized. Hydrodynamics is a key parameter for further improvement as it determines not only the energy demand of the reactor and the mixing quality with respect to dissolved gases, but also influences the cell physiology by moving the cells through the strong light gradients....
