  • Abstract
    CO2 fixation by marine micro-algae cultivation has the potential to diminish the emission of CO2. To select the proponent micro-algae species this is vital to realize workable biological CO2 fixation systems, three kinds of candidate energy marine algal strain were cultivated and tested for bio-fixation of CO2 from power plant flue gas. It was found that Chlorella was the most appropriate strain for CO2 fixation in high level CO2 gas, with the maximum CO2 fixation rate of 2979 mg/L-week.
