About this title

Synopsis

Biologically-Driven Carbon Capture and Utilization through Microorganisms for Sustainable CO₂ Biofixation and Bioenergy Generation explores biologically-driven carbon capture and utilization and covers the future of sustainable climate solutions. Focusing on microorganisms' pivotal role, the book investigates innovative methods for converting atmospheric CO₂ into valuable biomolecules, supporting both environmental health and energy production. It highlights advances in microbial strategies, genetic engineering, and metabolic modifications that enhance bio-capture efficiency. The book also examines integrating bioenergy systems with carbon sequestration, the potential of biochar as a removal strategy, and the bioconversion of C1 compounds, offering a holistic view of current technologies and future prospects.

Covering topics from sources of CO₂ emissions to the latest biotechnological innovations, the book is an essential resource for researchers, biotechnologists, environmental scientists, and students dedicated to combating climate change. Whether you're involved in environmental policy, renewable energy, or microbial research, you'll find valuable insights into sustainable solutions for reducing carbon footprints and advancing bio-based technologies.

• Highlights advances in microbial strategies for carbon capture
• Integrates bioenergy systems with carbon capture and sequestration
• Utilizes bio-capture of CO₂ through genetic engineering and metabolic modifications
