Carbon sequestration through solar bioreactors: industrial strategies

A promising biological solution for the utilization and conversion of CO2 from a power plant into viable economic products has been discussed in this study. Algae grow well on a high concentration of carbon dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. These pollutants which are released by automobiles, cement plan...
