Combinatorial use of environmental stresses and genetic engineering to increase ethanol titres in cyanobacteria

Combinatorial use of environmental stresses and genetic engineering to increase ethanol titres in cyanobacteria

Abstract Current industrial bioethanol production by yeast through fermentation generates carbon dioxide. Carbon neutral bioethanol production by cyanobacteria uses biological fixation (photosynthesis) of carbon dioxide or other waste inorganic carbon sources, whilst being sustainable and renewable....
