  • sp tahitian clone and uses therefore
    Patent number: 9408792
    Abstract: A novel microalgal strain whose lipid production has been enhanced compared to the wild type. The lipid content produced by the microalgae is particularly rich in neutral lipids. The use of the microalgal strain and the lipids are also described.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 16, 2012
    Date of Patent: August 9, 2016
    Assignee: INSTITUT FRANCAIS DE RECHERCHE POUR L'EXPLOITATION DE LA MER (IFREMER)
    Inventors: Nolween Dubois, Jean-Paul Cadoret, Gael Bougaran, Catherine Rouxel, Sophie Doulin

  • Method for the Fixation of CO2 and for Treating Organic Waste by Coupling an Anaerobic Digestion System and a Phytoplankton Microorganism Production System
    Publication number: 20120021477
    Abstract: The invention relates to a CO2 fixation and organic waste processing method, wherein microorganisms (105) from a phytoplanktonic culture and organic waste (104) are processed inside a hydrolysis reactor (101); at least part of a liquid effluent (109) exiting the hydrolysis reactor is processed inside a methanation reactor (102); a liquid phase (127) and biogas to be purified (110) exiting Step (a?) are processed inside a phytoplanktonic microorganism culture unit (103); a CO2-containing gaseous effluent (113) is injected into the phytoplanktonic microorganism culture unit; an NH3 concentration under 0.5 g/L is maintained inside the methanation reactor; and a methane-enriched biogas is recovered upon exiting the phytoplanktonic microorganism culture unit. The invention also relates to a system for implementing this method.
