Biohydrogen from Microalgae: Production and Applications

The need to safeguard our planet by reducing carbon dioxide emissions has led a significant development of research in the field alternative energy sources. Hydrogen proved be most promising molecule, as fuel, due its low environmental impact. Even if various methods already exist for producing hydrogen, them are not sustainable. Thus, focuses on biological sector, studying microalgae, and other microorganisms’ ability produce this precious molecule natural way. In review, we provide description biochemical molecular processes production biohydrogen give general overview one interesting technologies which hydrogen finds application electricity production: fuel cells.
