Engineering algae for biohydrogen and biofuel production.
There is currently substantial interest in utilizing eukaryotic algae for the renewable production of several bioenergy carriers, including starches for alcohols, lipids for diesel fuel surrogates, and H2 for fuel cells. Relative to terrestrial biofuel feedstocks, algae can convert solar energy into fuels at higher photosynthetic efficiencies, and can thrive in salt water systems. Recently, the...
متن کاملGenetic Engineering of Yeast for Efficient Biofuel Production
The global biofuels market is expected to rise from $82.7 billion in 2011 to $185.3 billion in 2021. Genetic engineering paves its way towards efficient biomass conversion into biofuel through metabolic manipulations. Present article is an effort to explore the role of Biotechnology engineering in Yeast as a tool towards efficient production of bioethanol through economically comprehensive rout...
متن کاملMetabolic Engineering of Microalgal Based Biofuel Production: Prospects and Challenges
The current scenario in renewable energy is focused on development of alternate and sustainable energy sources, amongst which microalgae stands as one of the promising feedstock for biofuel production. It is well known that microalgae generate much larger amounts of biofuels in a shorter time than other sources based on plant seeds. However, the greatest challenge in a transition to algae-based...

متن کاملImproving sugarcane for biofuel: engineering for an even better feedstock
Sugarcane is a proven biofuel feedstock and accounts for about 40% of the biofuel production worldwide. It has a more favorable energy input/output ratio than that of corn, the other major biofuel feedstock. The rich resource of genetic diversity and the plasticity of autopolyploid genomes offer a wealth of opportunities for the application of genomics and technologies to address fundamental qu...
