GENERAL INFORMATION

We ask for your contribution to the success of the workshop, which will bring together research teams of the unified Europe, especially in the field of practice application oriented R&D.

The main purpose of the workshop is to discuss the present state and the future possibilities of phototrophic biotechnology especially in the field of PBR design, cosmetics, food and feed applications, as well as to give new ideas and initiatives to progress in the field of bioenergy.

As innovative component of the photoproduction we intend to renew a very controversy discussion about photosynthetic efficiency.

The workshop will be accompanied by an exhibition of industrial users of microalgal biotechnology.

The official language of the meeting is English.
