Algal transgenics and biotechnology (2007, background): “Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has already been shown to produce 10 mol (20 g) H2 per m culture area per day (Melis and Happe 2001).”
Microalgal hydrogen production research (2016, background): “ianum) were found to encode highly similar [FeFe]hydrogenases and related genes with those encountered in green microalgae [10,34].”
(Fe)-hydrogenases in green algae: photo-fermentation and hydrogen evolution under sulfur deprivation (2002, background): “Photobiological H2 production by green algae would generate a renewable fuel from light and water, plentiful resources in nature [1].”
Green alga hydrogen production: progress, challenges and prospects (2002, background): “The ability of green algae to photosynthetically generate molecular H2 has captivated the fascination and interest of the scienti,c community because of the fundamental and practical importance of the process [1].”
Thermophilic biohydrogen production using pre-treated algal biomass as substrate (2014, neutral): “splitting of the water [1,2].”
A critical review of biochemical conversion, sustainability and life cycle assessment of algal biofuels (2011, background): “Melis and Happe [21] found that using the two-stage photosynthesis process and H2 production, a theoretical maximum yield of hydrogen by green algae could be about 198 kg H2 ha 1 day .”
