Efficient carbon dioxide sequestration by using recombinant carbonic anhydrase

Process Biochemistry, 2018
Abstract Efficient biological carbon dioxide sequestration for slowing down the climate changes requires a highly active and stable carbonic anhydrase (CA). A CA from Mesorhizobium loti (i.e., MlCA) was first over-expressed in E. coli via different vectors and a concentration of up to 5 g/L was obtained with pET32a(+).

Carbon Use Efficiency in Optimal Environments

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1989
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Crop physiologists have often been suprised at the lack of correlation between single leaf photosynthesis and yield. Conversely, canopy photosynthesis is highly correlated with yield. This difference should not be suprising because canopy photosynthesis is an integrated measure of 3 of the 4 physiological ...

Carbon Efficient Transport Management Using Multi-agent System

2014 IEEE 23rd International WETICE Conference, 2014
This paper presents a carbon efficient transport management system that uses agent-based technology to simulate the existing transport infrastructure of a city. By utilizing real-time information about the current use of transport infrastructure from different data sources (e.g. road-side sensors) the system is capable of providing guidance to everyday

Strategies for Efficient Solar Water Splitting Using Carbon Nitride

Chemistry – An Asian Journal, 2017
Abstract Graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C 3 N 4 )‐based photocatalysts are promising for photocatalytic water splitting to produce clean solar fuels due to their low cost, suitable band structure and excellent photocatalytic performance ...

Carbon use efficiency diagnostics in Nannochloropsis salina

Algal Research, 2018
Abstract Carbon dioxide (CO2) can be a significant resource input affecting the cost of algae biomass production on an industrial scale. Improvements in biofuel productivity therefore require characterization of CO2 use efficiency (CUE). RuBisCO saturation with CO2 is an important factor influencing biomass productivity.

Large‐scale importance of microbial carbon use efficiency and necromass to soil organic carbon

Global Change Biology, 2021
Abstract Optimal methods for incorporating soil microbial mechanisms of carbon (C) cycling into Earth system models (ESMs) are still under debate. Specifically, whether soil microbial physiology parameters and residual materials are important to soil organic C (SOC) content is still unclear. Here, we explored the effects of biotic and

Respiratory carbon losses and the carbon‐use efficiency of a northern hardwood forest, 1999–2003

New Phytologist, 2005
Quantitative assessment of carbon (C) storage by forests requires an understanding of climatic controls over respiratory C loss. Ecosystem respiration can be estimated biometrically as the sum (R Sigma) of soil (Rs), leaf (Rl) and wood (Rw) respiration, and meteorologically by measuring above-canopy nocturnal CO2 fluxes (Fcn). Here we estimated R Sigma

An analysis of fungal exudate and carbon use efficiency

2022
The exometabolome of various fungal functional guilds was investigated as part of the below-ground carbon flux. This thesis addresses the incorporation and exudation of carbon by individual, axenic fungal cultures, with a focus on developing a protocol for characterisation and identification of those compounds.
