✍“The main idea of the ALFAFUELS project is to develop algal strains which produce isoprene and then produce jet fuel components by combining the isoprene molecules into larger molecules using light as an energy source” 🗣Johan Engelbrektsson, research at #AddScience speaks in this interview about its contribution to the ALFAFUELS project. 📃Read the full interview here: https://lnkd.in/dreWSFxj #Cyanobacteria #PhotoChemistry #MicroAlgae #MetabolicModelling #Isoprene RISE Research Institutes of Sweden | Processum Biorefinery Cluster | University of Potsdam | Sustainable Innovations (SIE) | IDENER.AI | Uppsala University | DTU - Technical University of Denmark | DTU National Food Institute | KU Leuven | E3-Modelling Energy-Economy-Environment | Københavns Universitet - University of Copenhagen | Department of Food Science, University of Copenhagen | SkyNRG | Università degli Studi di Firenze | Eni | CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency | Sara Navarro Jaén | COCPIT Project | FUELGAE Project | SUSTEPS | SusAlgaeFuel Project
