Technical bioenergetics and ecosystem biotechnology.
The present work explores some possible practical uses of bioenergetic processes (fermentation, respiration and photosynthesis) in the microbial cell for the purpose of renewable fuel production. These considerations are based on ecosystem biotechnology which include the following main points: 1. Creation of closed energy-transducing ecosystems under laboratory conditions. 2. Production of renewable energy carriers with the help of microbial communities (e.g., mixed cultures of microorganism). 3. Investigation of the role of the individual microoganism in the population or community.
