Electricity generation through a photo sediment microbial fuel cell using algae at the cathode

Sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) are bio-electrochemical devices generating electricity from redox gradients occurring across the sediment–water interface. Sediment microbial carbon-capture cell (SMCC), a modified SMFC, uses algae grown in the overlying water of sediment and is considered as a promising system for power generation along with algal cultivation. In this study, the ...

Algae Biofuels

Since 2009, Synthetic Genomics and ExxonMobil have worked together to create high-density, cost-competitive transportation fuel from algae. On the heels of a major scientific breakthrough published in Nature Biotechnology in 2017, Exxon and Synthetic Genomics have recently set a goal to develop the technical ability to produce 10,000 barrels of algae biofuel per day by 2025.
