More information

Project name Carbon dioxide fixation using bacterium and algae / effective utilization technology development
Area green bio
Purpose

To resolve geoenvironmental issue, this project aims at Carbon dioxide fixation at an efficiency of more than photonic synthesis with microscopic organism such as bacterium and algae. And we aims at development of carbon dioxide recycling technology.

Introduction

(1) Research and development of high efficiency photonic synthesis bacterium and algae.

(2) Research and development of high density large photonic incuvation system for carbon dioxide fixation.

(3) Research and development of sunlight condensing with high efficiency and of utilization technology.

(4) Research and development of useful substance producing technology from photonic synthesis product.

(5) Research and development of technology for formulation as a total system.

5-1. Search for high efficiency photonic synthesis microorganism which is superior to Carbon dioxide fixation ability. Search for photosynthetic microorganisms which produce heavy demand expected substance, useful substance of high value and substance with high reduction effect of substance causing global warming.

5-2. Research and development of high density large photonic incuvation technology that enable advanced control of incuvation conditions to maximize photosynthetic function of microorganism.

5-3. Research and development of infrared territory separation and utilization technology and of high efficiency sunlight condensing device which enables high efficiency acquisition and utilization of sunlight.

5-4. Research and development of substance production technology from photosynthetic organism. The substances are 1. expected heavy demand, 2. with high value and 3. with high reduction effect of substance causing global warming.

5-5. Research and development of accessory device and overall control technology which increase total system efficiency for Carbon dioxide fixation and effective utilization technology.
