Hydrogen Production by Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cells in Sulfur-deprived Environments
Abstract or Project Description
Abstract
Many recent developments have been made in the research of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii for hydrogen production. The purpose of this webpage is to assist in understanding the recent developments coming from academic journals in this subject and help to clarify the idea of using a biological organism to produce hydrogen for energy use.
State of the Art
Many articles have been written about the ability to produce hydrogen from green algae and was known about for over 60 years [1]. The state of the research of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is making the hydrogen production more efficient and less expensive.
Objectives
Scientific Approach
Potential Impact
The potential impact of producing hydrogen by organism who utilize the sunlight to produce hydrogen is unmeasurable. If hydrogen is able to be made via the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii organism (or others) on an economically competitive level as fossil fuel or electrical hydrogen production then the world would use far less carbon based fuel for energy needs.
